Why businesses use React Native
It lets businesses launch on both app stores with one team and one codebase, saving significant time and cost compared with building two separate native apps, while still delivering a native look and feel.
How React Native works
Developers write the app in JavaScript or TypeScript using React components. React Native turns those components into genuine native interface elements on each platform, and can call native device features such as the camera, location, and notifications.
