Overview
React Native Expo is a set of tools, libraries and services that acts as an abstraction layer on top of React Native. It simplifies the deployment process, allowing you to generate a build with one click or command without having to create a developer account on various app stores. React Native Expo can be described as Rails for React Native.
In this instructor-led, live training, participants learn to use React Native Expo through discussion and hands-on practice. By the end of the course, participants will be equipped to create and deploy their own React Native application using React Native Expo.
