<p dir="auto">Mobile apps are literally everywhere 🤓 . if you're not in the 21st century then you may not know what mobile apps. 😆 .<br /> Mobile apps can make you , if you own them a millionaire if done the right way or a crappy looser if you don't advertise them <p dir="auto"><img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/foxlead/23wgWhgDieArCbgMVQq1UwhPNdzKkJypKbhZ8t2zNkcvTKkFSXixSyM8kk128h53Dv4Lx.png" alt="download.png" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/foxlead/23wgWhgDieArCbgMVQq1UwhPNdzKkJypKbhZ8t2zNkcvTKkFSXixSyM8kk128h53Dv4Lx.png 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/foxlead/23wgWhgDieArCbgMVQq1UwhPNdzKkJypKbhZ8t2zNkcvTKkFSXixSyM8kk128h53Dv4Lx.png 2x" /><br /> <img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/foxlead/EoeM9Ja5qD9qtQqC7K2MTwSGF9pVRruhQtaAkLsi1mrgFZNLH6df4wfc7YXmUmnuXfr.png" alt="download.png" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/foxlead/EoeM9Ja5qD9qtQqC7K2MTwSGF9pVRruhQtaAkLsi1mrgFZNLH6df4wfc7YXmUmnuXfr.png 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/foxlead/EoeM9Ja5qD9qtQqC7K2MTwSGF9pVRruhQtaAkLsi1mrgFZNLH6df4wfc7YXmUmnuXfr.png 2x" /> <p dir="auto">the right way . Here in this article i will share with you some few ways which i have learned over time in becoming a good mobile app developer. <p dir="auto">I know that if you're in the tech world you must have heared of Flutter, React Native , Ionic , Xamarin , Kotlin , Swift , Java ..... so much i can't count LOL. so you want to become a mobile app developer, it is good that you become a crossplatform mobile app developer than a single platform one , why? , because most of the companies or organizations or even individuals want their app to be accessible and available through , multiple platform and to be honest it really a strong assertation that many would like to have their apps available to every one but if you would like to become both cross-platform and single platform then You might want to consider ( Kotlin or Java ) for android Development and Swift or Objective-C for IOS platform ( But according to google analytics Objective-c is considered a dying programming language as of this time , even you would even find most IOS developer not recommending it. but it your choice . in my opinion however ( i would say that you can pick Kotlin( maybe because i know Kotlin programming LOL ) for android Development and Swift for IOS development ). <p dir="auto">Now Kotlin is a modern programming language that is concise , safe m pragmatic and focused on interoperability with java code(king of android app).it can be used for Server-side Development , Android apps and much more...<br /> now if you want to build a mobile app android app with kotlin you should install android studio (a studio for creation android apps ) and all libraies like SDK(really important cause this right here gave some serious pain in the *** when i forgot to update or install it ). <pre><code>let go through a basic Hello World in Kotlin Lang. fun main(args : Array< String>){ printin("Hello World!") ; } Not so pretty huh?. the word fun is used in kotlin to define a function just like the way you would define a function in javascript as function or in python def main , fun is used in kotlin . Then the main() , this is the main function of every kotlin code as the main code of the application starts from the main function just like c++ where the code also starts from the main function so is the kotlin language. the args simply signify a the arguments of the funtion assigning it value is the Array<string> signifying that the value of the argument. <p dir="auto">Then the printIn() is a method (function) used to output the text that is provided between its parantheses " brackets" in our case " Hello World !". <p dir="auto">I will be droppimg some article about this language often so stay tuned if you're intrested in learning the language . <p dir="auto">So we are at Cross-platform . Now ofcourse you might have heard of Flutter one of the most popular mobile app framework and React-Native , so in this article i will be explaning React-Native ( cause i am a React-Native Monil app Developer) . <p dir="auto">Now not that Flutter is not Cool it reall Cool. But to me it all Widget and coming from a full stack Nodejs and Python-Django perpespective the widget doesnt just cut it for me . it feels to almost unnatural for me because i am so used to styling my own app from scratch and taking control of the wheels and crating my own component myself so i didn't just like Flutter.<br /> Now React-native is one of the most Used Cross-platform mobile app framework as its give a native app experience to developers and of course Big Companies like (Google , Instagram , Skype ...) use this framework Instagram is built with React-native and skype just to mention a few... <p dir="auto">So if you're intrested in learning react-native feel free to let me Know in the comment Section as i would like to Give a full stack tutorial for free only on Hive. <p dir="auto">First thing you want to do if you have a computer is to intall Nodejs , nodejs.com ,and install npm (which is a package manager ). Then you go to you command terminal (cmd in windows) , and run the following command <pre><code>npm install -g create-react-native-app <p dir="auto">this install the package create-react-native-app from your cmd globally to your computer.then you want to create your first<br /> react-native app . run the following Command . <pre><code>create-react-native-app myapp <p dir="auto">what this does is that it create or scaffold your app for you, the myapp is your app name you can name it anything you want.after scaffolding the app , go to the app folder by runing <pre><code>cd myapp <p dir="auto">then run <pre><code>npm start <p dir="auto">to start the App you would see a QRcode which you can scan with you phone using the expo app which you can download googke play store or apple store. i personally use expo. you can also use android studio. but that willbe in the next article. <p dir="auto">thanks.<br /> Stay tuned...<br /> <img src="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/foxlead/23zbaHN47KjMkiQtDnw2CMEZUSJq4rK7dUZtTimp3ES3KD18Sx5b3CfyjkrXpZbXARCK6.jpg" alt="download.jpg" srcset="https://images.hive.blog/768x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/foxlead/23zbaHN47KjMkiQtDnw2CMEZUSJq4rK7dUZtTimp3ES3KD18Sx5b3CfyjkrXpZbXARCK6.jpg 1x, https://images.hive.blog/1536x0/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/foxlead/23zbaHN47KjMkiQtDnw2CMEZUSJq4rK7dUZtTimp3ES3KD18Sx5b3CfyjkrXpZbXARCK6.jpg 2x" />
