Why React Native has become the Winning Choice for Cross-
Platform Development?
Do the below statements sound like your objectives for your next mobile app?
➢ Creation of a native-like high-performing app
➢ Reaching a broad spectrum of the audience at once
➢ Cost-effective yet faster launch in the market
If yes, then React Native is a one-stop solution to meet all these goals in one go. React Native App
development has gained immense popularity in a short span of time despite being an emerging
framework. Even giants like Snapchat, Netflix, and Instagram have used it for their apps.
Moreover, several mobile app Gurus and tech-savvy enthusiasts claim this framework to be the
future of cross-platform app development.
So, this article outlines the top reasons why React Native has become a winning choice for many.
Let’s explore its key benefits.
Merits of React Native Development for Cross-Platform Apps
Outstanding Performance
React Native makes use of native controls and modules which aides in building native-like cross-
platform apps. Also, the React Native apps render their UI using the native APIs in place of
WebView. All this results in the development of stable, reliable, and high performing apps similar
to native apps.
Saves Time and Money to a Huge Extent
This framework is considered to be highly efficient as it helps in saving a great deal of time and

money due to the following reasons:
Code reusability: The notion “code once and use everywhere” is applicable in React
Native. So, the React Native developers don’t need to code separately for Android and iOS
platforms. They can reuse almost 80% of the code on other platforms.
Reusable components: There are various ready-made components available in React Native
due to which the time and efforts required for developing them from scratch are saved. It
speeds-up the development process making it quite hassle-free.
Declarative coding style: Declarative coding makes the coding process simple,
understandable, and flexible. The developers can easily understand the code just by looking
at it.
Hot reload feature: In case the developers change or modify the code, it instantly reflects
in the app, ensuring the live tracking of the changes. This is called ‘hot reload’ feature which
reduces the wait time of the developers and ensures faster implementation of any
feedbacks by the end-users.
Less number of developers: Small team of skilled developers can create React Native apps
making it a budget-friendly affair.
Easy maintenance and update: Maintaining and updating the cross-platform apps built with
React Native is easier and also saves time as there is no need to hire a separate team for
different platforms.
Ensures Outreach to Maximum Customers
Since these apps can be simultaneously launched on both platforms, the app owners can reach a
host of end-users at once. They can conduct their promotional and sales activities with the apps
which in-turn results in higher profits.
Compatible with Third-party plugins
Third-party plugins are usually considered to be insecure and vulnerable to threats. But this
framework supports add-on plugins for easier app development with flexible customization. It
supports two types of plugins- JavaScript Modules and Native Modules.
Simplified and Consistent User Interface
React Native is more like a JavaScript library rather than a framework. It utilizes JavaScript UI to
design the user interface. Hence the UI is simple, user-friendly, and has a consistent look and feel.
Also, React Native app development runs on Flexbox and SVG that provides a layout of the UI that
is compatible with screen dimensions of almost every mobile device, thereby making the apps more
responsive.
Modular architecture
React Native has a modular architecture that enables the developers to segregate the code
functions into the blocks or modules or subsystems. These are interchangeable and free and can
be re-used for APIs, making the development process much flexible, and updating process of the
apps extremely easier.
Community-driven Framework
This is an open-source community-driven framework where all the technical data and

documentation is available for one and all. The experienced React developers can share their
expertise and contribute to its progress. Also, it is being supported by Facebook and GitHub. Even
companies like Microsoft, Infinite Red, Software Mansion, Callstack, etc. often contribute to this
community.
Live updates on Stores
As React Native uses JavaScript as its core language, developers can release the updates into the
apps without submitting the changes in the Stores. It enables the developers to make use of tools
like expo or codepush from Microsoft to release updates in a short notice. Note that native code
if any would require the developer to go through the Stores.
Final Words:
In this article, we have seen a plethora of reasons why React Native App development is being
widely preferred for cross-platform apps. This framework has come up as a powerful solution for
delivering robust apps while being budget-friendly. The vibrant ecosystem of this framework
ensures that it has a dazzling future in the app development arena.
