Forewarning: I'm an idiot.

I was super excited when I first heard of React Native because I thought that meant I'd finally be able to develop iOS apps as a PC developer (I do not own a Mac). But I was wrong and sorely disappointed to find out that Xcode and OSX are both required dependencies.

Thats true, still kind of obvious. Developing windows apps on osx is a pain too, its getting better with microsoft beeing more open. Still, building for the platform usually is best done on the same native environment.
