In today’s React Native development landscape, we are no longer building for just mobile. We have the capability to develop for web, automotive, VR and TV. While each platform presents unique challenges developing for the fragmented landscape of TV experiences, in particular, requires balancing consistent app performance across platforms & devices while optimizing for each one’s specific requirements.
So, by sharing our lessons learnt from how to build performant apps for TV, we are essentially sharing React Native performance optimization techniques and best practices for creating scalable, accessible, high-performing apps across multiple operating systems, platforms, and devices.
In this talk, we will explore the intricacies of TV development and how it can help you approach building for a range of different form factors & devices. We will then explore how to structure a scalable codebase and look into strategies for efficient code sharing & feature development. Additionally, we will cover React Native performance optimization techniques as well as debunk how the new React Native architecture impacts performance.

Arvin built his first AppleTV app as a side project using react-native-tvos. He will present everything you need to know, including:
