In 2016, React Native was one of the rising technologies giving a great promise to save on development time but also carrying some risks. No one really knew in which direction it would go, whether it would last or become forgotten. We decided to take a bet and invest in the research on React Native. Today, we know it paid off, and React Native is here to stay. Facebook’s framework has been leveraged by big players such as Tesla, Instagram, and Airbnb. Airbnb has recently shared their experience with RN on their blog. After having delivered 20 projects and with 15 RN developers on board, we want to share what happened over the past 18 months of our journey with this technology.

If you’ve chosen to build your web app in Python, you’re in good company. Python is currently one of the most popular programming languages around, favoured for its clean, readable code, and flexibility. It is also in high demand because of its wide range of web frameworks that can take your project from idea to reality, in the fastest time possible.

Python fans like it for its simplicity and beauty. Two mottos: ‘beautiful is better than ugly’ and ‘simple is better than complex’ are part of the language’s core philosophy summarised in The Zen of Python. Python is also versatile. As a multi-paradigm language, it allows developers to build their programs using multiple approaches, including both object-oriented programming and functional programming. No wonder then that so many tech giants use Python to develop their products. Read on to learn about the top 8 companies that use Python in their business!

If your game app lags, all it takes to get back into action is pressing the refresh button. No harm done, just a little irritation on the user side. The same experience is hardly acceptable for a banking app - if you seem unreliable or insecure, you won’t get a second chance on the market.

Whether you’re testing microchips or powering the latest equivalent of Instagram, there’s a good chance that Python will be high on your list of preferred programming languages.
