In this module, you’ll explore cross-platform development and learn how React Native enables you to build apps for multiple platforms using a single codebase. You’ll dive into React Native’s architecture, understanding how JavaScript Core and the Bridge connect with native components. You’ll also set up your development environment with tools like Node.js, Android Studio, and Xcode, and create your first React Native app. Finally, you’ll scaffold a project and debug it using emulators and developer tools—equipping you with the skills to kickstart your mobile development journey.

In this module, you’ll learn the essentials of React Native. You’ll explore functional vs class components, use JSX for dynamic UIs, and manage data with props and state. Master styling with Flexbox and StyleSheets to create responsive layouts, and handle user interactions with buttons, inputs, and events. Finally, you’ll implement multi-screen navigation using stack, tab, and drawer navigators—building the foundation for interactive and user-friendly apps.

In this module, you’ll learn how to manage state using hooks like useState and useEffect, and handle global state with the Context API. You’ll also explore how to fetch and display data from APIs using Fetch or Axios, and implement lists, pagination, and pull-to-refresh functionality. Next, you’ll dive into local data storage with AsyncStorage and SQLite, enabling offline synchronization for better user experience. Finally, you’ll work with media and file handling by displaying images, playing audio and video, and managing file uploads and downloads—building the skills needed to manage data effectively in React Native apps.
