How to Develop a Mobile Application using ReactJS?

ReactJS is a highly sought-after JavaScript library to develop single page applications and mobile applications as well.
In this post, I would like to discuss about the knowledge and skills that are prerequisite for a mobile app development expert for building a mobile app using ReactJS.



The MVC Pattern

Is React a MVC framework? The answer might surprise you, it isn’t. React doesn’t work with a two-way binding process usually initiated by events which in turn are triggered by a correction in any part of development process. This JavaScript library rather uses unidirectional data flow and also works with a new element which is a combination of View and Controller.

Putting JSX syntax into work

JavaScript Extension (JSX) syntax helps JavaScript development experts in HTML quoting and also in rendering subcomponents. Thus, it allows you to write pure JavaScript easily. The syntax appears like HTML and had been introduced by Facebook.

React’s class system

The initiation in ReactJS is done with a class system; this is because elements are central to everything else in this library. These elements are developed with certain goals in mind and they also have their own ecosystem. This is a typical method of React.createClass; and owing to the absence of conventional Model View Controller (MVC), the standard class system also becomes outdated.

Keeping updated about third-party plugins

When you start using ReactJS, you would realize the lack of support as the resource of third-party plugins is lacking for this framework. Therefore, you would need to keep track about the latest releases of the plugins and keep yourself updated.

Proper documentation

You must be familiar with documentation while you begin to leverage ReactJS for your mobile application development. Thus, you would come to know how and where to begin your task and much more. Moreover, you will also get to know about some external resources in future as and when they are released.

Now it’s your turn

Today, there is stiff competition in the mobile app market and you would need to be equipped with a robust framework to meet with new challenges. Have you ever used React for creating a mobile application? Do you think it is one of the best frameworks available today?
