React Native Camera with Expo | Tutorial

Permissions are where most camera tutorials fall apart, so that's where this one starts. Once the user says yes, the rest is a Camera component, a ref, and some state, and you end up with a camera app that captures, previews, and saves like the real thing. I code it all in the video.

What's inside

• Async permission requests for camera and media library
• Controlling camera type and flash with React state
• A full-screen camera preview with UI nested inside it
• Reusable button components with Expo vector icons
• Capture, preview, retake, and save with createAssetAsync
• Flipping cameras and toggling flash at runtime
