Abstract: A lot is changing in the core of React Native. We’ve got Fabric, TurboModules, JSI, etc. We’ve also been working on how these systems interact with the JavaScript in React Native apps. This talk will be a deep dive into some of the expected JavaScript API changes, React Native’s JS internals, new startup performance improvements, codegen, and more! Eli White is a Software Engineer on the React Native core team at Facebook. Eli can live on ice cream, but thrives on pie.

Abstract: React Native isn't just for building mobile apps! Come learn from Microsoft engineers how you can use React Native to target Windows, Mac, and the new set of dual-screen devices including the Surface Duo and Surface Neo.

Abstract: React Native proves the success of running React other than browsers. The official supported frameworks from Facebook are only iOS and Android. There were some other platforms maintained by third-party developers, but these forks sometimes run with older React Native versions. The main reason is the difficulty to follow rapidly changed upstream code. From the upcoming React Native new architecture, there will be more platform-independent shared implementations and more abstraction layers. Let's see if we could extend React Native to some new platforms benefiting from the new architecture.

React Native EU 2017, organized by Callstack.io, was the first conference in Europe focused exclusively on React Native. It took place on September 6-7 in Wroclaw, Poland.

Building libs is fun, but building apps is REALLY fun. Let's go over some of the best practices and ways we can build apps that fit your needs and your team! This talk was presented at React Native EU 2017, September 6-7, Wroclaw, Poland.

React Native, The Native Bits React Native is much more than javascript. Every React Native app runs at least 4 different languages for the purpose of sharing code, implementing efficient subsystems, and interacting with the host system. We will look at how these systems work together and among other things learn how a javascript style object in your component gets translated into efficient C code in Yoga, the underlying layout engine. This talk was presented at React Native EU 2017, September 6-7, Wroclaw, Poland.

The history of UI programming is littered with frameworks that failed because they compromised user experience in favour of rapid development. As a technology, React Native has what it takes to avoid this fate, but it’s up to us to prove it by building delightful experiences that feel native to the platform. The question “does it feel native?” encompasses a breadth of topics: predictability, performance, gestures, motion, sensors, sound, and more. For those of us coming from web development, there’s a lot to learn. This talk explains what users really expect from our apps, and how we can use React Native to not only meet, but exceed their expectations. This talk was presented at React Native EU 2017, September 6-7, Wroclaw, Poland.

There’s no shortage of web apps which let you quickly write some code and preview it instantly on the web without having to setup a development environment locally. Snack is provides the same seamless experience for React Native. In this talk we will dive deeper to see how Snack works under the hood, the challenges we faced while building it and what can use you use it for.
