Wait wait… I know what you’re thinking. Why aren’t we building 10+ projects? Well, here’s the truth: most other courses and bootcamps do just that. They show you how to get started, build 10 projects that are simple and easy to build in a day, and just add some styling to make them look fancy. Will these get you hired? Unlikely.
In real-life and at your future employer, you’re not building simple, silly applications. When you apply to jobs, nobody is going to care that you built a really pretty single page app. Employers want to see that you know how to build large apps that can scale, that have good architecture, and that can be deployed to the app stores.
Let us tell you 5 reasons why this course is different from any other React Native tutorial you can find:
1️⃣ You will build the biggest project you will see in any course. This type of project would take you months to implement yourself. Let’s just say... your portfolio is definitely going to stand out compared to other applicants.
2️⃣ Learn React Native from the best. This course is taught by Mo and Andrei, two Senior Developers who have actually worked on massive projects for some of the top tech companies in the world.
Mo is a super star when it comes to React Native. He is a Solutions Architect with over 7 years of experience in Software Architecture and Development. Having worked as a consultant for the majority of his career, he has seen it all in the Mobile Development world. He is also a tech lead who has build mobile and web apps for top banks, big tech companies, and one of the biggest online e-commerce stores in the world.
Andrei has worked on enterprise level React applications for large tech firms in Silicon Valley as well as Toronto and his latest project was a React Native app for one of the biggest pharmaceutical companies in the world. 400,000+ students from around the world have now taken his courses and many are now working at places like Google, Amazon, Facebook, Shopify and Tesla.
By having both of us teach, you get to see different perspectives and you'll learn from 2 senior developers as if the 3 of us were working at a real company together.
3️⃣ This is not another free beginner React Native tutorial you can find anywhere. You will learn about design patterns, how to architect your app, organize your code, structure your folders, and how to think about performance. Let’s just say we don’t shy away from the advanced topics.
Most importantly, this React Native course will be continually updated with new lectures, resources and content as the mobile landscape evolves so that you'll continue to learn React Native best practices and keep your skills up to date 📈.
4️⃣ This course is not about making you just code along without understanding the principles so that when you are done with the course you don’t know what to do other than watch another tutorial... No!
This course will push you and challenge you to go from an absolute React Native beginner to someone that is in the top 10% of React Native developers 💪.
5️⃣ You're going to actually have FUN learning how to build mobile apps and you'll be learning alongside hundreds of other students from around the world in our online community.

Answers to (at least some of) your questions
Are there any prerequisites for this course?
- Just basic JavaScript knowledge. If you've taken Complete Web Developer, you're all set
- You DO NOT need any experience with React or any other framework/library
- You DO NOT need any Java, Kotlin, Swift or Objective C experience
Why should I learn React Native? What about Flutter?
- Best framework for mobile apps: widely regarded as the best framework for mobile app development. It's also cross-platform meaning you only need to code your app once for it to run on Android or iOS.
- Lots of jobs available: Used by major companies (other than just Facebook) like Shopify, Pinterest, Discord, Coinbase, Flipkart means there is huge job demand for React Native developers.
- High demand = High salary: Per ZipRecruiter, the avg annual salary for a React Native developer in the United States is $117,277.
- Flutter is garbage! Ok, we're just kidding. Flutter is totally fine. If you really want to now how we feel, Mo did a deep dive on Youtube answering the React Native vs. Flutter question.
Who is this course for?
- Students who are interested in going beyond a normal "beginner" tutorial
- Programmers who want to learn the most in demand skill of a mobile app developer
- Developers that want to be in the top 10% of React Native Developers
- Students who want to gain experience working on scalable large cross platform applications
- Bootcamp or online tutorial graduates that want to go beyond the basics
- Any mobile developer who wants to learn only one language to write both iOS and Android mobile apps
- Anyone looking to build their own mobile applications to put on the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store
- Web developers who want to get hired as a mobile developer
Do you provide a certificate of completion?
We definitely do and they are quite nice. You will also be able to add Zero To Mastery Academy to the education section of your LinkedIn profile as well.
Can I use the course project in my portfolio?
Yes, you’d be crazy not to! This restaurant application project is a large-scale real-world project that is downloadable and ready to use the minute you join.
Many of our students tell us the projects they built while following along with our courses were what got them interviews and because they built the projects themselves, they could confidently explain and walk through their work during the interview. You know what that means? Job offer!
Can I download the videos?
Definitely. You can download any and all lessons for personal use. We do everything we can to make learning easy, fun, and accessible whether that’s on your commute, on a flight or if you just have limited access to good wifi.
How long does it usually take for me to build something and get hired?
Ultimately you’re the only can that can control that. Everyone learns at a different pace, but students who put in a couple hours each day to apply what they’ve learned should be able to confidently build their own projects and get hired within 6 months.
We don’t see just getting hired as the end goal though. Our advanced courses will also teach you the topics and skills you need to get promoted and hired as a senior developer.
