react-native Playground is a Code Editor App that can run JavaScript code. It is created specifically to run React Native code, but can run anything written on JS. It runs React Native code locally, on the very same device where it was written and user can see result live. It does not need Internet connection to work, except your code needs it.

All permissions requested by the app can be disabled and it will run just fine. However, you will not be able to use functionality which requires these permissions.

*IMPORTANT*: This application is not meant for full scale development, its just a playground, prototyping tool, for developers who want to play and learn, try react-native features.

Prerequisites: User who knows what they are doing. This app does not have any documentation on JavaScript or React Native topics, so typical user of this app is someone who already knows React Native or learns it somewhere else.
