THINGS I WISH I KNEW BEFORE SWITCHING TO REACT NATIVE
Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter
Core React concepts like hooks, functional components, and state management carry over when transitioning from React to React Native. However, developers must adapt to using native components instead of HTML elements, JavaScript objects for styling instead of CSS, and React Navigation instead of React Router. The good news is that API handling with libraries like Axios and TanStack Query remains largely the same, and responsive design principles using Flexbox still apply.
