ReactJS to React Native

After two years doing web stuff in ReactJS, I have been itching to do a production-ready React Native App.

Finally, a client asked, “You did React before, right?”

Me: “Yea”

Client: “Then React native shouldn’t be a problem?”

Me: “Yea, it should be quite similar”

Haha, I was so naive…

Here is a list of things that I wish I knew going from ReactJS to React Native

Even if I want to do something like ```Text { color: white; }```, I can’t…yet. (wink. wink. Facebook developers)

Remember to connect your device and your laptop to the same wifi if you’re using a remote debugger.

“Responsive” Design take a lot more effort than defining media query

Move on to the next third-party modules if one is not working, because react-native changes fast. Some third-party modules are just outdated.

Some companies only provide SDK in Object-C or Swift. Hope there’s a nice person who would write a wrapper for you, or have fun learning another language.

Remove unused modules when experimenting fails, or your life will be spent waiting for Xcode to compile

Be prepared for Build Failed, so before you link some new library commit your previous changes
