Show HN: Hacker News Client for iOS built with React Native

Looks pretty neat!

I like how snappy the app is. Only thing I'd change is that filter selection: The "standard" menu icon would look better IMO.

Congrats on the good job!

Btw, now that you did a whole project with React Native, what are your thoughts on it?

Thanks!

What is the "standard" menu icon? This isn't really a menu, but a dropdown, so I figured the chevron would work fine.

I'm really pleased with React Native. I am writing React at work, and I was surprised how similar it is to React. I know that is the selling point for it, but after learning the few gotchas from the docs, it was pretty much just like writing a web app.

I'm currently not touching local storage, I will as I add more settings, so I can't really comment on that.

The navigator is a little confusing, but there is a new navigation project[1] that is supposed to be pretty solid, I am planning on migrating to that soon.

If you are using redux, redux-persist is trivial to bake in and can rehydrate your redux state granularly.
