I have zero knowledge with Android development. I started to mess around with react Native these days. And so much time on configuring the environment of everything... Emulator, SDK, ADV... Still doesn't work... Spending hours and days waiting for a miracle. And then the emulator launched. Thanks God.

    Amazing stuff with state and props. Just like normal web development with vdom in rendering. There are a few advantage on using react Native.

    1. No need to wait for the compiler to compile, double tap r and it will refresh itself, just like a browser

    2. Easy to add library with npm of nodejs, can include moment.js... Very easily

    3. Easy to display server update with state. By changing its state, the whole view will be rerender

    I am looking forward to see if there are some official framework with react native. But now it works perfectly smooth and time saving omg.

    Sure it is much much much easy to code with react native. And the best part is that the reusability of the code on iOS and Android. Really cool stuff.
    Just wonder the capability of react Native. Dont know the limitations yet

    @samsek All those 'advantages' are there in Native classes.
    1.hot swapping
    2.gradle
    3.notifyDatasetChanged()

    I don't see how they are advantages compared to Native development

    @bdhobare Did you miss the point that you can use the same code on both platforms? ;)

    @cahva That is an advantage.Just not the others listed earlier.
