The "React Native Express" site is pretty good [0]. You might also want to look at the "Awesome React Native" list for resources [1]. Beyond that, I keep a big list of links to high-quality tutorials and articles on React, Redux, and related topics, at [2]. Specifically intended to be a great starting point for anyone trying to learn the ecosystem, as well as a solid source of good info on more advanced topics. It includes links for learning core Javascript (ES5), modern Javascript (ES6+), React, and much more. I also published an "Intro to React (and Redux)" presentation at [3], which is a good overview of the basic concepts for both React and Redux. Finally, the Reactiflux chat channels on Discord are a great place to hang out, ask questions, and learn. The invite link is at [4]. You _might_ want to consider using the Create-React-App

tool to do some initial playing around with standard React for the web first to give yourself an understanding of how to use React before moving on to React Native. There's also a "Create-React-Native-App" tool that can help with spinning up a simple RN project.

In Ask HN: Best resources to learn React Native in 2 weeks?
Yes, quite easy! I have very little android dev experience. Android integration was excellent, I had zero issues. It was easy to ship to the play store (faster and less painful than iOS. And if you need to modify something, you don't need to wait days to get it re-approved). If you're playing "within the bounds" of what React Native provides, it's wonderful. If you're doing some fairly custom things you may need to drop down and write Native Modules ( https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/native-modules-... ), but the ecosystem is growing so fast that there are so many third party libraries that cover many of the custom things you'd want to do ( https://github.com/jondot/awesome-react-native )
In How I learned React Native in a weekend and shipped an app
Either of these[1][2] will get you a good distance. Also, check out Awesome React Native[3] for a curated list. Even if you use one of these component libraries though you will just be deferring learning the basics of React Native layout and decorative styles until later on. It's an unavoidable tax you will have to pay one way or another. Thankfully it's not too hard- the documentation is explicit about what style properties apply to which components (example: `View`[4]) and the `StyleSheet`[5] helper will bark at you if you use invalid styles.
