Cross-platform, React Native development for modern software solutions

A consistent User Experience is key to understanding how users interact with products. Developing apps with React Native  creates a unified experience across multiple devices.

We use React Native and Node.js in many of our projects to create progressive solutions that are engaging, scalable and highly performant.

Why use React Native?

React Native is an open-source mobile application development framework that allows for development of cross platform applications with one codebase.

By allowing developers to develop front-end components using JavaScript it makes beautiful UI development a cinch and ensures a consistent UX on both Android and iOS.

Since its release in 2015 React Native has become one of the most widely used frameworks for front-end application development. Currently more than 15% of top app installs are React Native apps according to appbrain. Some of the top apps that are built on React Native include Facebook, Netflix, TikTok and Tesla, just to name a few.

Because React Native is written in JavaScript the learning curve to begin developing a cross platform app is small and there is a vibrant online community.

React Native development with NearForm

We focus on fast delivery to mobile and web platforms by a single team from a single codebase. By unifying teams, workflow and codebase around one project focus more on producing a high quality product with consistent user experience and less time developing code for individual platforms which reduces complexity and technical debt.
