As a HEAVILY involved React Native developer, I am strongly suggesting you to NOT use Deco Software.  It&#x27;s pointless.  Get Vim or Atom editor if you want to build a React Native app.  There are CLI tools anyways to make your life easier.  Your hardest battle will be you needing to afford a new computer to be able to run both the iOS simulator and Android simulator (or Genymotion) all at the same time.  HMR reloading is already in RN v0.18+ I believe.  I&#x27;m on 0.20 and it&#x27;s AWESOME.  We even have pull to refresh in now.  The RN docs are FINE.  Don&#x27;t use this IDE.  Again, don&#x27;t use it!!! You&#x27;re better off learning on your own with GitHub.  The environment changes so much, because its so new, and things break all the time, that you&#x27;ll be left in the dust because of this IDE.  Just look at my GitHub activity feed to see all the issues that spring up, not to mention all the ones I don&#x27;t bother documenting because I want to keep moving so fast.
