Progressive Web Apps can speed up app loading times, and even allow you to run your web app offline, and install it on a mobile device!  However, setting up a PWA correctly can be tricky.

In this course, we'll create a PWA from start to finish, using create-react-app.  We'll create a custom service worker, and use different caching strategies for different types of assets.

Finally, we'll look at how to install the app on both iOS and Android devices, and how to customize the app name, icon, and splash screen.

Course Introduction: Progressive Web Apps in React with create-react-app

In this lesson we'll explore debugging our React Native application in an actual iOS device.

React Native: Debugging on an iOS Device

In this lesson we'll look at some simple ways to customize TabBarIOS, creating a scrollable tab area, and implementing custom icons in TabBarIOS.Item.

Learn to write components that render differently on iOS and Android, but present the same API. First, we'll use the Platform module to change behavior based on the platform. Then, we'll use the platform-specific file extensions, .ios.js and .android.js, to render platform-specific components.


Writing Platform-Specific Components for iOS and Android in React Native

Learn how to construct sophisticated custom components using UIViewController. Understand how to construct UIButton's programmatically and attach tap events via NativeScript using the static ObjCExposedMethods property. Also learn how to save images to the user's iPhone Camera Roll using native api's. Specifically we will look at creating a custom {N} view component for SwiftyCam (a Snapchat inspired implementation: https://github.com/Awalz/SwiftyCam).

We will use the [NativeScript Speech Recognition plugin by Eddy Verbruggen](https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/nativescript-speech-recognition) to convert speech to text. The plugin provides a clean abstraction over the [Android SpeechRecognizer](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/speech/SpeechRecognizer.html) and the [iOS SFSpeechRecognizer](https://developer.apple.com/reference/speech/sfspeechrecognizer).

Use Speech Recognition with NativeScript

NativeScript is a framework that let's you build JavaScript to native applications. In this lesson, we will set up a native app using the NativeScript command-line interface. We will then take a brief look at some of the project it generates.

Set up a native app project with the NativeScript CLI

In this lesson, we will start with a list of content from a React Native FlatList that we will then transform into a three-per-row grid.

In this lesson, you will learn how to use the `SafeAreaView` component to avoid the sensor cluster (the notch) and home activity indicator on the iPhone X.

Use the SafeAreaView Component in React Native for iPhone X Compatibility

By default, React Native only targets iPhone - so if you run on an iPad, it will show up as a scaled app, and won't look like a native iPad app.

To target both iPhone and iPad, you have to change the xcode project to build it as a universal app.  Do that by finding the `Deployment Info` section of the `General` tab in the app target - and switch that from `iPhone` to `Universal`.

Then, you can run your app in either the iPhone or iPad simulator, and change the styling based on the current device.


Target both iPhone and iPad with React Native

First, install redux with: `npm install --save redux` and install react-redux with: `npm install --save react-redux`

In the top level of your component tree, import `createStore` from redux, and use it to create a new store with a simple reducer:

`import { createStore } from 'redux'`

`const rootReducer = (state = {}, action) => {
  return state
}`

`const store = createStore(rootReducer)`

Also import `Provider` from react-redux:

`import { Provider } from 'react-redux'`

And then wrap your app's components with a `Provider` component, and pass in your `store` as a prop:

`<Provider store={store}>`
  `...`
`</Provider>`

Then, you can connect any sub components with the `connect` function, by first importing it:

`import { connect } from 'react-redux'`

And then calling it with a `mapStateToProps` or `mapDispatchToProps` argument, and then passing in the unconnected component:

`const ConnectedLoginGate = connect(state => ({
  username: state.auth.username
}))(LoginGate)`





Add Redux to an Existing React Native Application

iOS and Android come with several built in fonts, but if you want to use a custom font in your react native application, you'll need to add it first.

You can add a custom font by copying the font files to your project, telling react native where to find those files by adding an `rnpm` entry to your `package.json` file, and then linking them with `react-native link`. 

Then, you can use that new font by specify it as the `fontFamily` style for a `Text` component, and you can change the `fontWeight` or `fontStyle` component if you've added additional style and weight font files.



Add a Custom Font to a React Native Application

There are two ways to open urls in React Native.  One is to open, and switch to the device's web browser, and the other is to embed the web page within your application.

To open the mobile device's web browser, we'll import `Linking` from react native, and use the `openURL` function, which will open any url that starts with `http` or `https` in that web browser.

If you want to stay within your current application however,  you can import `WebView` from react native, and use that as a component in your application.  Pass in a `uri` param to display that web page in the embedded web view.

Open a Webpage in React Native with Linking and WebView

When you bring up the on screen keyboard in a mobile app, it will cover any text input or buttons on the bottom half of the screen, which can be frustrating for users.  There are a few common ways to deal with this in React Native - and this video shows the following solutions:

First, you can use the built in `KeyboardAvoidingView` to move components around when the keyboard comes on screen.  It has the advantage to being built in to React Native already - but it can be overly complicated to get this approach to work consistently across both iOS and Android.

There is also a third party library called `KeyboardAwareScrollView`, which will allow your entire view to scroll, and will keep the currently selected text inputs up and out of the way of the keyboard.

Prevent the On-screen Keyboard from Covering up Text Inputs

Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to make creating and changing any kind of text very efficient. It is included as "vi" with most UNIX systems and with Apple OS X.

Every programmer starting to work in a *nix environment eventually finds themselves in VIM, the default text editor. Often by mistake! Because VIM lacks the typical polished GUI of normal programs, it can be hard to discover the correct sequence of commands to even exit the program. Once you learn how to exit VIM, then the next task is to also learn how to make VIM do what you want -while- exiting!

In this lesson we cover 7 different ways of exiting VIM, whether you are in EX mode or Command (also known as Escape) mode, whether you are editing a single file or several at once.

Bootstrap is an incredibly popular CSS framework designed to make your website look great on mobile and desktop.

By the end of this course, you'll be familiar with many of the popular classes and components that Bootstrap uses to apply in your own projects.

For each feature you build in the course, you'll get a sense for what the relevant classes do for those components and links to documentation for further exploration.

For the course demo application, we will analyze the landing pages of Microsoft and Apple to identify common components that are implemented. When these are identified, you'll implement these components yourself with Bootstrap.

You'll build several common UI elements such as a nav bar, a carousel of images, Cards, and Forms.

Through building these components, you'll understand what is behind the different classes Bootstrap gives you and get familiar with how it exposes flex and grid layout for you.

Cascading Style Sheets bring order and beauty to our applications.

Vue (pronounced /vjuː/, like view) is a progressive framework for building user interfaces. Unlike other monolithic frameworks, Vue is designed from the ground up to be incrementally adoptable. The core library is focused on the view layer only, and is very easy to pick up and integrate with other libraries or existing projects. On the other hand, Vue is also perfectly capable of powering sophisticated Single-Page Applications when used in combination with modern tooling and supporting libraries.
