Which IDE to use?
There are many different IDE that you could use to code React Native, but there are some IDEs that shine better than others.
1. Webstorm
One of my most favorite. Webstorm support javascript harmony beautifully. Mass refactor code, linking resource manager, error checking.
The downside is Webstorm is not a free IDE and it kind of laggy when running on a low-end machine.
Available on Mac OS, Windows and Linux.
2. Visual Studio Code
Free. Open source. Runs everywhere. Have extensions market.
Available on Mac OS, Windows and Linux.
3. Nuclide or Atom
One of the best React Native IDE on Mac OS. Nuclide is built as single packet on top of Atom.
