Book Description
React and React Native, Facebook’s innovative User Interface (UI) libraries, are designed to help you build robust cross-platform web and mobile applications. This updated third edition is improved and updated to cover the latest version of React. The book particularly focuses on the latest developments in the React ecosystem, such as modern Hook implementations, code splitting using lazy components and Suspense, user interface framework components using Material-UI, and Apollo. In terms of React Native, the book has been updated to version 0.62 and demonstrates how to apply native UI components for your existing mobile apps using NativeBase.
You will begin by learning about the essential building blocks of React components. Next, you’ll progress to working with higher-level functionalities in application development, before putting this knowledge to use by developing user interface components for the web and for native platforms. In the concluding chapters, you’ll learn how to bring your application together with a robust data architecture.
By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build React applications for the web and React Native applications for multiple mobile platforms.
What you will learn
Delve into the React architecture, component properties, state, and contextGet to grips with React Hooks for handling functions and componentsImplement code splitting in React using lazy components and SuspenseBuild robust user interfaces for mobile and desktop apps using Material-UIWrite shared components for Android and iOS mobile apps using React NativeSimplify layout design for React Native apps using NativeBaseWrite GraphQL schemas to power web and mobile appsImplement web and mobile components that are driven by Apollo
Who this book is for
This book is for any JavaScript developer who wants to start learning how to use Facebook’s UI libraries, React and React Native, for mobile and web application development. Although no prior knowledge of React is needed, working knowledge of JavaScript programming will help you understand the concepts covered in the book more effectively.

Well organized, easy to follow and current <-- this is an excellent book! I have books in my library older than most of the people I work with, maybe 200+ at this point and I would put this among the top 10 for content. Great book if you're looking to get into React and/or React Native and the follow-along code samples actually work - big kudos!

arrived damaged on the corner
The packing was ok, but the carrier seems like didn’t have care with it

Well written and easy to follow
Could you have spent more time discussing how to set up development tools and options.

Book I wish I read before learning React
When I started programming with React, I just jumped right in. And then I had to backtrack to figure out where I went wrong. It seems simple, but it is not really that easy. This book starts slowly and introduces a reader to how React works including how to use React hooks and how to create reusable components.Almost half the book is devoted to React Native, and shows how to build a cross-platform app using Expo. This is useful to me right now, because I thought React Native would be the same as using React and it is not. So this section points out the differences, so you are ready for that.The final part of the book covers React architecture. It shows you how to build your own React Native Components using NativeBase, how to use Redux for more robust state control, and how to use Apollo to retrieve data in GraphQL format.

If you never used React or React Native, then use this.
Pretty easy read, straight to the point, easy to code examples. I needed help with ES-6 and Hooks. Although, this covers these concepts, it doesn’t go into depth of them. This is a great resource for a first day beginner. I don’t regret buying it, but after reading it, it was not for me.

The best React resource out there
Just what I was looking for. Though React may look simple it has a lot of moving parts. The authors have done a great job of maintaining a fine balance between theoretical and practical content. The only book I could find that teaches in detail both web and mobile development with React.

Best book on React for beginners
If your goal is to learn React and React native, look nowhere else, this is it. I’ve read every book I can find on React and this is by far the best one you”ll find.

It does not include development environment installation instructions
without installation instructions none of the code will work, it is not a good book for a person that does not know react to start with and its installation process. go to reactjs.org for installation instructions

You will not learn anything that you cannot learn online spending a day or so. Purchased this to use as a reference book but looks like I made a lot of bad choices that day.
