Our premium app templates are fully functional starter source codes, to help software developers and tech entrepreneurs make their mobile apps more quickly and at a fraction of the cost.
React Native developers eventually need a signed Android release build. For Google Play, the normal production artifact is an Android App Bundle (.aab). APKs are still useful for local testing, sideloading, and some distribution workflows, but Google Play release planning should start with the app bundle.
This guide explains the modern release build flow for React Native Android apps.
Vibe coding is a new, informal term for writing software by talking to AI tools instead of typing code. In practice, a person simply describes a task in plain English (or another natural language) to a large language model (LLM) that’s been trained to write code. The AI then generates working source code to solve the task. As one summary explains, it shifts “the programmer’s role from manual coding to guiding, testing, and refining the AI-generated source code”.
React Native has become the go-to framework for creating cross-platform mobile applications that feel native on iOS, Android, and even the web. While it's a strong foundation for app development, taking an app from a concept to a visually appealing, smooth, and user-friendly interface can be quite challenging and time-consuming. That is where React Native UI libraries come into their own. These libraries offer developers the pre-built and customizable elements that accelerate the design process and thereby help create amazing apps faster with less effort.
If you are looking for design-kit inspiration and starter screens, see Best Free React Native UI Kits. This article focuses on reusable component libraries and design-system building blocks.
In today’s fast-paced app development world, choosing the right framework for building cross-platform applications is crucial. Two of the most popular frameworks in this space are Flutter and React Native. This article will dive into a detailed comparison of these two frameworks to help you make an informed decision for your next project.
In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to record and play audio in React Native apps. We are going to build a simple screen that supports features such as recording audio, playing audio files, pausing and resuming, as well as resetting audio streams.
In this article, we are going to describe how to add a video player in your React Native app in order to support playing Youtube videos. Video is the present and the future of the Internet, as you can already see through apps such as TikTok, Youtube, Instagram or Facebook.
At Instamobile, all of our React Native Templates have support for saving the user login credentials. This means that when users open the app, they are automatically logged in if they previously entered their valid login info. To achieve this behavior, we are leveraging AsyncStorage. In this tutorial, we are offering a React Native AsyncStorage example, inspired by our work on Instamobile’s React Native starter kits, including functional source code and step by step explanations.
Perceived performance is critical in mobile apps. We need to make our apps fast and snappy, otherwise users won’t use them. Adding features like animations and haptic touch feedback makes mobile apps feel more performant. In this article we are going to be talking about Haptic Feedback in React Native – what it is and how can we implement it in mobile apps.
Mobile app templates are game-changers for developers at every level. For beginners, they offer a valuable starting point, helping them navigate the complexities of coding with confidence. For experienced developers, these templates are invaluable time-savers, allowing them to focus on refining and innovating without getting bogged down by repetitive tasks.
