Repository summary

The facebook/react-native is the official GitHub repository for React Native, a popular framework for building mobile apps using only JavaScript and React. React Native allows developers to build applications for Android and iOS platforms simultaneously without sacrificing the end-user's experience.

Here's a breakdown of react-native's key features:

Cross-platform app development: With React Native, you can develop robust applications for Android and iOS using the same codebase. This significantly reduces the time and cost of app development.
Live and Hot Reloading: The repository supports both live and hot reloading during the development of a mobile application. Live reloading helps to compile and read the file from the start where the developer has made changes. Hot reloading only refreshes the files where changes have been made; this keeps the app running even when the developer is refining the user interface.
Integration with third-party plugins: This feature allows developers to integrate different third-party plugins, which adds to the application’s functionalities.
Community Support: Being an open-source platform, React Native has a vast community of developers. This community can be very helpful in resolving queries associated with React Native app development.

Noteworthy folders in the repository include:

Libraries/: Contains components and APIs for a plethora of features including images, scroll views, user interface components, and more.
ReactAndroid/: Contains Android-specific code including Java classes that correspond to React Native components.
ReactCommon/: Contains code that is shared amongst multiple platforms.
