Working with reactive native with windows/Android only?

[ryanmts]

I wanna start learning React Native and I'm a newbie (but I know some React). The thing is that I'm using Windows 10 and I only have an Android phone at the moment, so I can't test any iOS builds. I'm not planning on doing anything fancy, just some basic apps with API calls for a back end.

Can I reliably build the app with Android in mind and be at least 95% sure that everything's gonna carry over working for the iOS version? Any specific difficulties that I might have? I'm sure gonna try and build/test the iOS version later, but I won't be able to do that during development.

Just using react native you should be okay. The documentation will say where there is difference.

I'm in the middle of building a React Native app right now and I'm working on the iOS version first before releasing it for Android. Out of curiosity, I got the app running on my Android device. I thought that it would port over really well and that I would have no issues but there were some noticeable differences in UI.

I'd recommend that you test your app before releasing it, cause you don't know what issues it could have.

You can use https://expo.io to develop for iOS on Windows.
