I wanted to explore the world of React Native as I see it as a great alternative to developing apps. One of the biggest advantages is that it allows for front-end development using Flex and CSS, which makes styling apps more enjoyable than developing regular Android apps.
However, there are some limitations to React Native, such as its lack of support for certain features like Bluetooth connection with other devices, which I actually needed for another React Native application I was developing.
About this app
This is a trivia game that similar to a quiz, where the player must guess the correct word based on a hint. If the player is unsure of the answer, they can reveal a letter from the word, which comes at a cost of points.
It still needs some work. I haven't had the motivation to complete it yet as it requires a lot more content to be added. Games like this can only be successful if there is enough content and the questions are not repeated.
Additionally, I am not satisfied with the design of the app and it would benefit from professional help
But my biggest concern is whether or not it is actually fun to play. I feel that it lacks a clear motivation for the player. To make it more engaging, the game would need some gamification elements, such as a sense of competition with other players. However, implementing these features would require a significant amount of time and effort, and would likely require a team effort to make it a serious game.
However, it was good experience and I don't regret any time spent into this. I believe React Native is solid tool for building mobile apps.
