React Native is an open-source cross-platform mobile development framework created by Meta Platforms, Inc. It is used to develop applications for Android, iOS, macOS, tvOS, Web, Windows, and UWP by enabling developers to use the React framework along with native platform capabilities.

In this guide, we will explore how to integrate Asgardeo into your React Native apps, using react-native-app-auth, a well know authentication SDK for React Native apps.

What are we going to build

We are going to build a super simple application that has login and logout capabilities. Our application will have two screens, one is public and the other one is private. Users will have to authenticate by proving their identity to access the private page. This protected page will also show the logged-in user’s information.
