This book should be called "Expo"
Definitely dives more into React and Expo. Not much on the React Native side of things... and... well... good luck getting Expo installed. LOL!

The book is not in color
"Look Inside" shows the printed book in color (screen shots) but the book is in black-and-white. The book materials are excellent but my expectation was high because of the preview. Oh well...

Don't let the page count fool you
This is a well-written book and provides a good overview of react native and some of the more advanced javascript principles necessary for writing excellent react native apps.The following critiques the PDF version from their website, which most likely mimics the print in terms of layout.However, I was a bit surprised by the page layouts and the amount of information found on each page. It demonstrates that the publisher is inexperienced in the art of page layout. The font size is bigger, and there is a considerable amount of empty white-space. The code snippets use odd coloring choices, which emphasize the wrong things. For example, closing tags are always bright red so they stand out as being most important, yet these are the least important parts of the code examples. I find the layout to be distracting and unpolished. I wonder if the bloated page count is being used to justify the $59 price-point, they could have made this fit in few pages and brought the price down to something a bit more reasonable.Nevertheless, getting past the layout, the content of this book is thorough and well presented.

Best React Native reference for me
I purchased the online version of this book because of the excellent sample articles I read prior - and - because Devin (co-author) is an excellent developer in the React-Native space. The content is excellent and thorough. I wanted a physical copy of the book because I find it more useful to bookmark and highlight stuff on paper - and - I like having the best reference books on my bookshelf. DISCLAIMER : I was sent a free sample of the paper book for review.

Very clearly written, draws reader into understanding React Native
This is a very well-written book. It is written in an engaging way and draws the reader into learning React Native from the beginning. The book has very good coverage of the topic and just reading the first part that explains the React framework is very helpful. I haven't seen React explained this well anywhere else.

Buon libro
Un buon libro per acquisire le basi di React Native. È semplice da capire, spiega bene le cose anche se non sempre entra perfettamente nel dettaglio e richiede che si abbiano già conoscenze di programmazione (in generale) e una conoscenza molto di base di Javascript. Gli autori hanno fatto un buon lavoro ma ritengo che per quel prezzo forse si può anche evitare di comprarlo e acquisire le basi tramite risorse gratuite sul Web o al massimo qualche video corso a molto meno. Forse per questo prezzo mi aspetto non solo di acquisire le basi, ma che vengano fornite magari anche altre lezioni più approfondite oppure che vengano aggiunti altri esempi entrando maggiormente nel dettaglio di ciò che è trattato nel libro.

Don't waste your money on this "printed tutorial"
When I buy a software development book, I expect more than your typical "click here, click there, press ok" tutorial-kind content. However, this is exactly what this book is. Lengthy, mostly pointless code listings, without good cohesion or deeper discussions. I am very sorry to say this, but this book is no worth neither the price nor your time. Save a tree, save yourself some disappointment, and keep looking for a different book...
