This is interesting, definitely. One thing people should be aware of if they&#x27;re new to the React Native environment is that this technology comes built in. It is a big reason why React Native is such a huge success so far. You don&#x27;t need an IDE and switching to one instead of using your own tools seems like a pretty big negative to me.<p>Tools such as rnpm allow for automated installation of new extensions (all of which are available on npm).<p>Extension installation is as simple as:<p>rnpm install react-native-video<p>Deployment is now as simple as:<p>react-native run-android
react-native run-ios<p>No XCode, no Android Studio, etc. and you get live reloading, Chrome debugging, etc.<p>To me this is an ideal workflow, but others may disagree. Some may choose to build IDEs such as this on top of the existing architecture, that&#x27;s cool too. I just want people who are starting out to be aware that there isn&#x27;t much new here in terms of work flow efficiency.
