"Frontend Fundamentals" course. You should also have an understanding of HTML/CSS and Git.
Additionally, React.js skills are required, or you can complete the "Advanced Frontend with React.js" course.
WHY SHOULD YOU LEARN REACT NATIVE:
React Native is a mobile app development framework that allows you to write one codebase for both iOS and Android.
With native component rendering, React Native delivers high performance comparable to native applications.
Additionally, the Hot Reload feature enables developers to see code changes instantly, significantly
accelerating the development process.
Top companies like Facebook, Instagram, Uber Eats, Tesla, and Airbnb actively use React Native,
proving its reliability and scalability. With it, you can effortlessly integrate native functionalities
such as camera, geolocation, and push notifications to build seamless mobile applications.

- develop cross-platform native mobile applications for Android and iOS
- work with mobile device emulators to test and debug applications
- publish mobile applications on platforms like Google Play Market
- monetize applications using advertising services
- integrate native functionalities such as camera, geolocation, and push notifications
- use Redux for efficient state management in applications
- set up adaptive design for different screen sizes and platforms
