React Native Best Practices

Cross-platform mobile development with React Native.

Core Principles

• Cross-platform first: 80%+ shared code
• Native when needed: Platform-specific modules
• Performance: Cold start < 1.5s, memory < 120MB
• Offline-first: Local data, sync later

Cross-Platform Code

// Platform.select for different implementations
import { Platform } from 'react-native';

const styles = Platform.select({
  ios: { paddingTop: 48 },
  android: { paddingTop: 24 },
});

Navigation

// React Navigation
import { NavigationContainer } from '@react-navigation/native';

<NavigationContainer>
  <Stack.Navigator>
    <Stack.Screen name="Home" component={HomeScreen} />
  </Stack.Navigator>
</NavigationContainer>

State Management

// Zustand for simple state
import { create } from 'zustand';

const useStore = create((set) => ({
  count: 0,
  increment: () => set((s) => ({ count: s.count + 1 })),
}));

Offline Storage

// WatermelonDB for offline-first
import { Database } from '@nozbe/watermelondb';

const database = new Database({
  schema: appSchema,
  modelClasses: [User, Post],
});

Native Modules

// TurboModule for New Architecture
import type { TurboModule } from 'react-native';
import { TurboModuleRegistry } from 'react-native';

export interface Spec extends TurboModule {
  startActivity(options: string): Promise<void>;
}
export default TurboModuleRegistry.getEnforcing<Spec>('CameraModule');

Push Notifications

// @notifee/react-native
import messaging from '@react-native-firebase/messaging';

await messaging().requestPermission();
const token = await messaging().getToken();

Build Commands

# iOS
cd ios && pod install && cd ..
npm run build:ios

# Android
cd android && ./gradlew assembleRelease

Quality Gates

• 80%+ cross-platform code
• Cold start < 1.5s
• Memory baseline < 120MB
• Battery drain < 4%/hour
• 60+ FPS (120 for ProMotion)
• Crash rate < 0.1%
