Publisher's Synopsis
Architect high-performance, cross-platform applications with the latest in modern React and native development.
React 19 isn't just a version bump, it's a seismic shift in how we build interfaces, structure components, and deploy applications at scale. Paired with the evolving capabilities of React Native, today's developer is empowered to create truly unified web, mobile, and desktop experiences. In-Depth React 19 & React Native is your complete guide to mastering these platforms in a single, production-ready stack. Whether you're a senior engineer modernizing legacy apps or a full-stack team building a greenfield project, this book takes you deep into the practical workflows, architecture decisions, and tooling strategies that power scalable, maintainable applications across all platforms. What You'll Learn ✔ React 19 Fundamentals & Concurrent Patterns Harness new rendering capabilities, use() for data loading, and architectural concepts like Server Components, Suspense, and transitions to deliver seamless user experiences. ✔ React Native Architecture Deep Dive Explore the inner workings of React Native 0.73+, including TurboModules, Fabric, and the new JSI. Structure shared and platform-specific codebases with precision. ✔ Unified Rendering & Data Loading Combine streaming SSR, partial hydration, and nested routing with shared GraphQL or REST APIs-whether using Next.js, Expo Router, or vanilla stacks. ✔ Styling That Performs Everywhere Compare Tailwind CSS, StyleSheet API, utility-first frameworks, and cross-platform variants like tRPC or CSS Modules for responsive, consistent styling. ✔ Advanced Navigation & Native UX Patterns Master nested navigators, stack/tab paradigms, and deep linking-plus platform-specific enhancements like system gestures, animations, and navigation-driven state. ✔ Secure IPC, Sandboxing & Native Modules Implement secure inter-process communication with contextBridge, CSP, and platform sandboxing. Bridge to native device features like the camera, filesystem, and biometric auth across platforms. ✔ Testing & Optimization at Scale Build robust pipelines with Jest, RTL, Playwright, and Detox. Optimize for runtime performance using list virtualization, Reanimated, Hermes, and performance budgets. ✔ CI/CD, Deployment & OTA Updates Automate end-to-end delivery via GitHub Actions, Azure Pipelines, Fastlane, and Expo. Package and publish to web, mobile, and desktop platforms with code signing and update strategies. ✔ Monitoring & Feedback Loops Implement holistic monitoring using Sentry, Firebase Crashlytics, and LogRocket. Surface issues across targets and triage with actionable analytics. ✔ Versioning, Migrations & Future-Proofing Plan and execute upgrades across React 19 and React Native without drama. Align on stable APIs while preparing your stack for edge-first deployment and architectural evolution. Who This Book Is For- Developers ready to embrace the React 19 paradigm shift and deepen their React Native fluency.
- Engineering leads architecting unified codebases across mobile, web, and desktop.
- Cross-platform product teams seeking scalable, testable, and maintainable patterns-without sacrificing performance or DX.
With this book as your companion, you'll not only master the tools, you'll internalize the thinking behind modern UI engineering. This is how React 19 and React Native really come together.
