React Native and Expo App Engineering: Build Modern Cross-Platform Mobile Apps for iOS and Android with TypeScript (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "React Native and Expo App Engineering: Build Modern Cross-Platform Mobile Apps for iOS and Android with TypeScript (en Inglés)"
Building your first mobile app can feel overwhelming. New tools, unfamiliar terminology, Android and iOS differences, routing, APIs, authentication, testing, and deployment can make it seem as if you need years of experience before you can create anything useful.React Native and Expo App Engineering gives you a clear, practical path forward.Designed for readers with no previous React Native, Expo, Android, or iOS development experience, this hands-on guide teaches modern cross-platform mobile development one manageable step at a time. Basic JavaScript familiarity is helpful, while TypeScript and mobile-specific concepts are introduced gradually as you use them.Instead of jumping between disconnected examples, you will build FlowTask, a complete cross-platform productivity app that grows with your skills. Each chapter adds another real-world capability, helping you understand not only what to type, but why each part of the application works.Inside, you will learn how to: Set up a modern React Native, Expo, and TypeScript development environmentBuild responsive, accessible interfaces for Android and iOSCreate reusable components and manage application stateAdd navigation with Expo Router, tabs, dynamic routes, and protected screensBuild forms with validation and clear error handlingConnect your app to REST APIs and manage server dataImplement authentication, secure token storage, and protected requestsStore data locally with SQLite and create offline-tolerant experiencesWork with notifications, permissions, images, and native device featuresTest and debug components, navigation, APIs, and application behaviorImprove performance, accessibility, and production reliabilityBuild and prepare Android and iOS applications for real-world release with EASThe learning experience is intentionally practical and encouraging. Longer implementations are broken into manageable stages, important decisions are explained in context, and each chapter ends with a practical exercise so you can apply what you have learned immediately.You will also learn something every developer eventually discovers: errors are part of the process. A route may fail, a permission may be denied, an API request may break, or a build may need additional configuration. Rather than hiding these moments, the book shows you how to understand them, debug them, and keep moving forward.Every working screen, successful request, completed form, passing test, and finished build is progress.By the end, you will have more than a collection of code examples. You will understand how the major parts of a modern mobile application fit together and have a practical foundation for building, testing, improving, and shipping your own cross-platform apps.If you are ready to move from tutorials and uncertainty to building real mobile applications with confidence, React Native and Expo App Engineering is the step-by-step companion to help you begin.Start building your first production-ready cross-platform app today.
