React Native Blueprints

By: Emilio Rodriguez Martinez

Overview of this book

Considering the success of the React framework, Facebook recently introduced a new mobile development framework called React Native. With React Native's game-changing approach to hybrid mobile development, you can build native mobile applications that are much more powerful, interactive, and faster by using JavaScript This project-based guide takes you through eight projects to help you gain a sound understanding of the framework and helps you build mobile apps with native user experience. Starting with a simple standalone groceries list app, you will progressively move on to building advanced apps by adding connectivity with external APIs, using native features, such as the camera or microphone, in the mobile device, integrating with state management libraries such as Redux or MobX, or leveraging React Native’s performance by building a full-featured game. This book covers the entire feature set of React Native, starting from the simplest (layout or navigation libraries) to the most advanced (integration with native code) features. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build professional Android and iOS applications using React Native.

Preface

Reducers


In previous chapters, we split our Redux-specific code (reducers, actions, and action creators) in the standard way that is documented in Redux's documentation. To make it easy to maintain in the future, we will use a different approach for this app: Redux Ducks (https://github.com/erikras/ducks-modular-redux).

Redux Ducks is a proposal for bundling together reducers, action types, and actions when using Redux. Instead of creating separate folders for reducers and actions, they are put together in files based on which kind of functionality they handle, reducing the number of files to deal with when implementing new features.

Let's start with the products reducer:

/*** src/reducers/products.js ***/

import { get } from '../api';

// Actions
const FETCH = 'products/FETCH';
const FETCH_SUCCESS = 'products/FETCH_SUCCESS';
const FETCH_ERROR = 'products/FETCH_ERROR';
const ADD_TO_CART = 'products/ADD_TO_CART';
const REMOVE_FROM_CART = 'products/REMOVE_FROM_CART';
const RESET_CART = 'products...
