React Native developers are often in the situation of releasing their React Native apps to the Google Play Store so that Android users can download them. In this tutorial, we are going to learn how to generate a React Native Release Build APK for Android, using both React Native CLI and Android Studio IDE. At Instamobile, we launched all of our React Native Templates to production (Google Play Store demos), so we are familiar with the process as well as the errors that might show up when generating a React Native Release Build APK for Android. We are documenting our learnings in this React Native tutorial, to help mobile developers ship their Android apps to production more quickly.
