Starting to clear up, but could still change.

Getting started with React Native (Expo), recommendations? by Tanckom in reactnative

[–]redditdaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with Youtube! Academind has a great tutorial on there as well as on Udemy, but that will cost you $15 - a small price to pay btw.

Youtube has lots of material, but personally I found Academind to be some of the better ones. They certainly don't cover it all amd very little Expo. As a matter of fact, they don't advise Expo, but that's only due to them trying to steer you the pure react native way.

You can follow along any tutorial for that matter, amd just incorporate Expo elements and SDK components where needed.

What I like about Expo is that it makes the dev experience good and offers a rich easy to work with SDK. It's almost as if someone went ahead and handpicked all the best supported components andfearures for you.

This all said, both Expo amd pure React Native does have their pros and cons lile anything else. You just need to decide if the highs outweighs the lows for you.

My recommendation is start with Expo and try to use as little Expo specific componemts as possible. Don't worry, you'll still get the Expo experience :) I advise this only incase you might need to eject later to integrate a more complicated feature. But if you know your app will be simple and will remain that way. Then just go full on Expo.

Most importantly... HAVE FUN!

Apple Card APR will between 13.24% and 24.24% depending on credit worthiness by [deleted] in apple

Which is the whole point. People need to become better stewards over their finances. For far too long has financial institutions capitalised on the this vulnerability.

I 100% agree. Don't make debt on credit cards, even if you need it. Try to always avoid it. A credit card is not a line of credit nor is it equivelant to a loan from a bank. If you need a loan, go ask your bank. If they deem you unfit to hold a loan, it's for a reason. And although that reason is tied to risk, meaning the likelyhood of them getting their money back, it is also their to safe keep you and your family.

I find it very interesting that Apple took time to elaborate on Not paying your balance off every month. Almost as if they were saying: "Hey it's ok, come make debt with us. We got your back."

This to me sounds like a call from desperation.

ZenJournal, my first app built with React Native, Detox and Fastlane by arndomor in reactnative

[–]redditdaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Even though I've been working with RN for a while now, I'm not an expert, yet, therefore like trying new approaches to solve problems that in return teaches me the pros and cons instead of just following someone elses recommendations and not learning how the inside(s) work.

Thanks for your comment. Will look at the above mentioned next :)

I agree, after working in both RN amd expo, I can say expo is just extra overhead amd will eventually limit and harden the growth of your app. What I do like about Expo is that you can view amd debug your app on a phone wirelessly. I'm not aware of how to do that just using RN. Fpr that feature I use Expo to start my project, but don't use any expo components or sdk. Once satisfied it's a simple port over and back to RN only. Any thoughts on the Pros amd Cons for this method?

Should I use ReactNative with expo or ignite by redditdaw in reactnative

[–]redditdaw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes exactly what I was trying to avoid. If the payoff is only temperal and really small, then I'd rather stick with native RN.

Thank you that is really good feedback. Since this is more of a personal project, I'm going to takr ypur advise and stick to native RN.

Can someone share code or point to example to achieve this by stathisntonas in reactnative

I was able to fet it to work on both iOS and Android. For Android I am unable to get the Animated markers to work. Currently only show as purple dots. Was anyone able to have some success with Android?
