React Native in Practice

on YouTube ↗25m

" summary

Production React Native work reduces to concrete surprises: apps used by a million users break from small repeated choices; a reused card that grows into 23 props, 60 lines becomes unmaintainable; lists that use an inline render + Math.random key cause Android feeds to thrash; skipping upgrades turns a 0.68 → 0.79 upgrade into six weeks of Metro, Gradle and native-module fixes. Expect profiling on midrange Android, dependency audits, split components, feature-flag expiries, and scheduled boring upgrades.
