Tag: How React Native compiler works?

For React Native, for the programming language – you need JavaScript or a slightly different take on JavaScript which mixes JavaScript and HTML type syntax called JSX. The tools for React Native are mostly a text editor and the Chrome debugger and a few tools others for build and testing.

When using React Native, you’re going to be running your JavaScript code in two environments: On iOS simulators and devices, Android emulators and devices React Native uses JavaScriptCore which is the JavaScript engine that powers Safari .

React Native uses JavaScript to compile the app’s user interface, but using native-OS views. For more complex features, it allows code implementation in OS-native languages (Swift and Objective-C for iOS, and Java and Kotlin for Android).

React Native works as a wrapper . For example: if you wanted to put a button in your layout, you’d simply add a button tag. You then use a specific API from the UI module to render this on Android. You can easily create custom native modules to use in your React Native projects.2 Nis 2017
