React Native v0.25.1 released


Brace yourself, Winter _might not_ be coming for at least [ten more days](http://www.hbo.com/game-of-thrones), but Universal Windows Platform apps _are_.

During the second day of Facebook's [F8 2016](https://www.fbf8.com/) was announced that Microsoft has joined forces on React Native, bringing it to the Universal Windows Platform.  
This simply means that React Native apps will be running on Windows Desktop, Xbox and Windows Phone (and even HoloLens!).

Can't help yourself and want to see a demo right away?  
Watch Christopher Chedeau unveling it at Facebook's Open Source booth.

Are you ready to hear more? Well, the project is already available as a fork (for now?) on GitHub.

React Native on the Universal Windows Platform


If you guessed that [F8 2016](https://www.fbf8.com/)'s app was built with  
React Native, Redux, Relay, GraphQL and Parse by a single developer, then you were right (and probably you should start playing Powerball).

[Alex Kotliarskyi](https://twitter.com/alex_frantic) did just that, and you can both check the out on Google Play and App Store and browse its source code today!
