I built an AI-powered React Native app using Claude API.
Here's how I did it in one day 🧵
1/ Set up the Anthropic SDK in Expo npm install @anthropic-ai/sdk No native modules. Works out of the box.
2/ The key trick — stream responses for native feel Batch text updates feel laggy on mobile. Streaming makes it feel alive.
3/ Built a context-aware chat screen Passes conversation history on every call. Claude remembers the full session.
4/ Shipped to TestFlight same day. Zero app store config changes needed.
Founders: if your app needs AI features, this is the fastest way to add them.
DM me if you want to add Claude to your React Native app. Happy to help →
