The main advantage of using this programming environment is the native performance it offers.

This was already possible with other environments such as <\/span><b>Cordova<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but the difference is that React Native renders apps that use native views while in Cordova they run within a web view.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">React Native has access to Android APIs, which means that its app\u2019s user experience and <\/span><b>performance is similar to that of a native app<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Another advantage is that changes can be easily seen by just saving. By making use of JavaScript, React Native enables quick iteration without having to wait for native builds to finish.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This framework is certainly a safe option, as it\u2019s backed by Facebook and \u2014 most importantly \u2014 by a large user community.
