React Native tutorial

• stigi 8y ago
  You lost me at yarn add native-base --save npm install @expo/vector-icons --save When I read `native-base` I was all: ewww. Everybody I talk to who used it in previous project regretted it and build back. Second, the mixture of yarn and npm in the code snippet shows that the author either didn't understand what they are doing, or does not care to lead with a clean example. It's okay to stick with only npm in a beginners tutorial. Update: Also, why the Python prerequisite?

    While I think you could've been a lot more constructive with this comment, you're right—it's clear the author is new to the practice. I wish there were a way to encourage more people to write without simultaneously causing the spread of bad advice. At least, it does seem like good ideas mostly prevail? Edit: upon actually reading the whole article, I gotta say, this is exceptionally low-quality stuff by HN's standards.
