Preface

About the Reviewer

Patrick Puritscher began developing websites at the age of 14 by teaching himself the necessary skills. Already using React.js, he started to develop with React Native, shortly after watching the initial presentation. He is also active in the community with his open source components and recently published an app for iOS, completely written with React Native. After graduating with his bachelor’s degree, Patrick worked as the lead developer for multiple internally used web apps and a website with several million visits each month. It is his personal ambition to create software for people that makes their life easier, rather than making it more difficult with poor UX. Patrick has just started with his master’s degree in Business Informatics.
