Good. React Native does not work for even the simplest things.
- g_delgado14 8y agoOur company has been using RN with real users for just about a year now. And there really aren't any complaints other than we sometimes can't use some API's (but we still manage to figure out a solution at the end of the day - to the satisfaction of our iOS & Android users). However, we do use Expo[0] to manage some of the rough edges of RN. [0] - https://expo.io https://expo.io
- zebraflask 8y agoYou must have had a better experience with it than I did. More power to you. Seriously, I don't think I need a QR code to make a mobile device work.
- kiliancs 8y agoI think you are talking about the dev experience using Expo.
- zebraflask 8y agoYup. Pretty terrible.
- ascorbic 8y agoIt's not really enough to judge the developer experience of React Native in general. The whole point of Expo is that is replaces the normal experience.
- zebraflask 8y agoThat's a fair point and I certainly don't mean to knock devs who enjoy RN. I found it quite frustrating compared to regular React, which is usually a very pleasant framework to work with.
- chrisco255 8y agoYeah, you don't need a QR code with React Native, that's a nice feature of Expo...but you can always plug a USB cable in and deploy your app that way.
