React Native Full Stack Course – Clerk, Postgres, NativeWind

This course covers building a complete grocery list application for iOS and Android, focusing on modern React Native development, secure authentication, and cloud-based database management.

• Development stack — The application utilizes React Native with Expo, NativeWind for layout styling, and Zustand for handling global app state [02:46].

• User authentication — Clerk provides identity management, allowing the integration of social login options like Google and Apple [00:42].

• Backend infrastructure — Neon Postgres serves as the cloud database, while Drizzle ORM manages the interaction between the code and the stored data [02:18].

• Navigation patterns — The project employs Expo Router to create a file-based routing system where file paths automatically define app screens [25:10].

• Issue tracking — Sentry enables error monitoring and adds a feedback widget for users to report bugs or request feature changes [03:35].

• How can a FlatList improve rendering performance for long lists compared to standard mapping?
