Hello Readers,
Welcome to the new and improved layout of the React Native Newsletter! It's a cleaner and more flexible layout to bring you the best in React Native. Hope you enjoy it!
We'd like to welcome all of the new subscribers and thank you all for spreading the word. Please keep it up! Once we hit 10,000, the following newsletter will contain a discount code to Chain React for the first 25 purchasers!
Starting with this issue, we’ve also moved the official vault of issues over to Medium. The old issues will continue to live at reactnative.cc, which get a new look soon.
AND
We’re now releasing the React Native Newsletter bi-weekly on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of every month!
Since we're releasing more frequently, you'll notice that this issue isn't as long as some previous issues. But don't worry - posts, articles, videos, and more that don't make it into the newsletter will be tweeted on the RNN twitter account, so look for more updates and content there!
P.S. If you're in New Orleans this week at Jazzcon, come say "Hi!" as I'll be assisting Gant Laborde with teaching the React Native Workshop.
