FAQs

What does a React Native Developer actually do? 

As a React Native developer, you're building mobile apps that'll run smoothly on both iPhones and Android devices - all from one codebase. Most of your time gets spent writing JavaScript, hooking up APIs, and working closely with designers to make sure the user experience doesn't suck.

What skills should I have before applying? 

Solid JavaScript fundamentals and React experience are essential. Beyond that, understanding mobile development principles helps tons. If you've dabbled with Redux or Git, even better. Don't worry if you're not perfect at everything though; most companies will train you on their specific stack.

What kind of salary can I expect in this field? 

You're looking at around £35k-£45k, which isn't bad for entry-level. However, once you've got 3-5 years under your belt, that jumps to £50k-£70k pretty quickly. Senior devs often pull in £75k-£95k+, depending on where you're based and the company's budget.

Is there actually demand for React Native developers? 

Yes. Instead of building separate iOS and Android apps, companies can save on development time and associated costs. Startups especially love this approach.

Where will I find these jobs? 

Aside from specialist recruiters such as Gravitas, Tech startups, big corporations, digital agencies and consultancies offer these roles.

Do I need previous mobile development experience? 

If you're already comfortable with React and JavaScript, you can enter this field. That said, understanding how mobile apps work - things like navigation patterns and device-specific features - will definitely make your life easier.

How's this different from regular React development? 

Web React builds websites; React Native builds mobile apps. The core concepts are similar, but you'll be working with mobile-specific components instead. Plus, you'll need to think about things like different screen sizes and platform quirks.

Can I work from home? 

Many companies offer remote working for React Native roles. Mobile development actually works quite well remotely since most of your collaboration happens through code reviews and video calls anyway.

Where could my career go from here? 

You could become a Senior Developer, move into Team Lead positions, or even become a Mobile Architect. Some developers pivot into Product Management or start their own consultancies once they've built up enough experience.

How do I make my application stand out? 

Create a portfolio of actual mobile apps that showcase what you can do. Contribute to open-source projects if you can, stay current with React Native updates, and show that you can solve real problems, not just follow tutorials.
