What is a React Native Developer?

A React Native Developer is a JavaScript developer who has invested their time in learning the React Native framework to create cross-platform mobile applications.

As React Native essentially leverages the React library, some React developers expand their knowledge into React Native. In some rare cases, there are some pure React Native developers, however, this is the exception.

Hourly rates for React Native Developers

Another way to look at developer costs is through hourly rates. While salaries are good to understand for hiring developers for full-time and long-term, you might just need a developer for a period of 3-6 months or 6-12 months.

Why Hire a React Native developer

Trio React Native developers are pre-vetted, interviewed, and then trained further to become true software professionals, capable of adapting to situations that are both within and outside of the scope of their general expertise.

At Trio, we hold our developers to a higher standard. Much like how elite special forces units recruit only the best from main branches of the military, we recruit developers who either show amazing potential or demonstrate exceptional skill. We then take their talents and sharpen them even further.

Another benefit of hiring a Trio developer is that you won’t incur the costs of hiring, which can add up to be around 30% of a developer’s salary on average, as well as overhead costs associated with full-time employment.

By working with Trio, you can enjoy a highly experienced full-time developer for a fraction of the cost, along with the added project management assistance.
