React Native questons

It's not often I do this, but I've decided to let React Native go.

I have had far too many problems, questions and issues (not anyone else's fault) with it to make it worth my while continuing and I think my time would be better spent elsewhere. It's just come to a point where I've just said to myself "Right, that's it. I've had enough"

Not withstanding this I still have a few more burning questions before I do move on.

  • Do I have to know React Native to get anywhere in React Development in general?

  • Do I have to run npm install everytime I open up the project to get the Android Emulator to work? Or any other maintenance or commands to open a project.

  • How do I open an Android emulator without using Android Studio to develop an RN app

I know it might seem fruitless to ask this considering I've just said I'm moving on to other things but I thought it worth asking all the same. If only to get my mind at ease ;)
