native-data-fetching

API data fetching and caching in Expo is handled by integrating React Query to manage network requests and cache responses. This skill guides you through basic fetch usage, error handling, and setting up React Query for efficient data synchronization in mobile apps.

Managing authentication tokens in React Native is best done using expo-secure-store. This skill implements secure token storage and refresh flows, ensuring credentials are safely managed and automatically applied during network requests.

Offline support for network requests in Expo is added using NetInfo and React Query. This skill implements offline synchronization by detecting online status with NetInfo and queuing data fetching operations until network connectivity is restored.

React Query works with Expo environment variables for API configuration by using the EXPO_PUBLIC_ prefix. This skill covers configuring .env files to expose API endpoints and settings to your React Native networking workflows.

Error handling for fetch requests in React Native is implemented by wrapping basic fetch usage with error checking logic. This skill guides you in building robust networking workflows that catch network failures and gracefully handle failed API calls.
