React Native

A project-based journey of me having fun with React Native. An Awesome library for Awesome projects ahead.

Day 1:

• Development environment Setup
• Learning Expo tools, caveats
• Learning Views. The basic building block of UI in React Native: TextInput, Image, Text etc
• Learning what core components are, examples
• Learning native components

Day 2:

• Made a Todo list
  • How to dismiss a keyboard.
  • Interacted with ScrollableView, TouchableOpacity Component
• Learnt the flexbox basics
  • A flex of 1 allows an element to take up the space available on the screen
  • When the element's content overflows, the parent container becomes scrollable after specifying a flex of 1

Day 3:

• Adding icons using Expo.
• Install from @expo/vector-icons. It has ant icons, material and more libraries.
• Default display of elemnts is them being stacked on top of each other
