React: Cross-Platform Application Development with React Native

Chapter 2. Project 2 – Image Sharing App

At this point, we know how to create a fully-featured app with a custom interface. You even learned how to add a state management library to control shared data in our app so that the code base remains maintainable and scalable.

In this lesson, we will focus on building the app with a different state management library (Redux), using the camera capabilities, writing platform-specific code, and diving deeper into building a custom user interface, which is both appealing and usable. An image sharing app will serve as a good example for these features and also will set up the basis for understanding how big apps should be built on React Native.

We will reuse most of our code for the two platforms where this ...
