1 week ago - Without a Framework, you’ll either have to write your own solutions to implement core features, or you’ll have to piece together a collection of pre-existing libraries to create a skeleton of a Framework. This takes real work, both when starting your app, then later when maintaining it. If your app has unusual constraints that are not served well by a Framework, or you prefer to solve these problems yourself, you can make a React Native app without a Framework using Android Studio, Xcode. If you’re interested in this path, learn how to set up your environment and how to get started without a framework. ... Expo is a production-grade React Native Framework.

r/reactnative on Reddit: npx create-expo-app@latest
August 15, 2024 -

Hello everyone,

I'm relatively new to the world of react-native.

I've now come across the fact that I wanted to learn some React in my spare time and made something with ChakraUi.

Now my app has been built so well that I want to convert it into a mobile app.

I have read a lot that the first step with Expo was a good solution for me.

But I have some questions that I still have problems understanding.

If I want to build a new app with npx create-expo-app@latest, the structure is quite complicated for me at first and the one thing is that TypeScript is used.

I mainly only used JavaScript in my React app. Can I get away from TypeScript at all?

Another question is. Do I need such a complicated structure for now.

Can't I use something like this: https://snack.expo.dev/?platform=ios

Here the structure looks pretty simple and understandable.

Do not use it. Check out lru-cache if you want a good and tested way to coalesce async requests by a key value, which is much more comprehensive and powerful.
