Demo Proposal: A quick tour of building a React Native app in 2024

[brentvatne]

• Draft Title: A quick tour of building a React Native app in 2024
• Length: (5 min ~ 10 min) 15 mins (discussed with @ShMcK)

React Native is back and better than ever. Expo is a framework recommended by Meta for building production apps with React Native. Rather than just saying a bunch of words, I'll show you what this all means and why I think React Native with Expo is the best way to build most mobile apps in 2024.

Speaker Bio (optional)

• Name: Brent Vatne
• Mini-bio: Web/mobile developer working on Expo and React Native
• Would you like help with your demo? Not necessary, thanks!

note: this does not conflict with #81 - I will not cover the topics that @kei95 intends to. It may make sense to have my demo go first though, since it could be useful context for the audience before @kei95's demo.

Hi @brentvatne it's nice to know you'll be at the event! I didn't know someone in Expo team was in this town😳 I honestly feel sooo much pressure to give a talk in front of someone from the real Expo team 😂 Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to seeing you at the conf!
