⚡️ Try InstantDB: https://dub.sh/instantdb
I built a full AI-powered app builder using React Native, InstantDB, and AI models — an app that can literally generate other apps from natural language prompts.
This project combines modern React Native architecture with InstantDB’s real-time data layer, Magic Codes authentication, and a full AI → code → preview pipeline. If you want to learn how to build real production-grade mobile apps with React Native in 2025, this is the perfect deep dive.
In this video, we build the entire system from scratch:
🔥 What We’re Building
An AI app generator that creates React Native apps from user prompts
Automatic UI, routing, and data schema generation
Real-time syncing, build storage, and app previews via InstantDB
A complete app dashboard for managing builds
An App Details Page that streams generated code live
Magic Codes authentication for secure user sessions
Evaluation layer for validating AI-generated code
Expo Router navigation with protected routes
⚙️ Key Features:
🤖 AI-Powered Generation: Create React Native apps using natural language
🕰️ Real-Time Updates: InstantDB keeps builds synced across devices
👤 Magic Code Auth: Simple, secure user authentication
🎨 Live App Preview: See generated apps before deployment
🗂 Build Management: Create, view, and manage multiple builds
🚀 Expo Router: Modern file-based routing for production apps
If you want to understand modern, production-level React Native app structure, this walkthrough covers every layer: UI, state, AI generation, authentication, routing, and real-time data handling.
