This is a tutorial that aims to get you up to speed with writing iOS apps using React Native. If you want to learn what React Native is and why Facebook built it, check out this blog post: **[INSERT BLOG POST URL]**.
We assume you have experience writing websites with ReactJS. If not, you can learn about ReactJS [here](http://facebook.github.io/react/).

### Fetching real data
Fetching data from Rotten Tomatoes's API isn't really relevant to learning React Native so feel free to breeze through this section.
Require the fetch module which is used to make an HTTP request to rotten tomatoes's API.
```javascript
var fetch = require('fetch');
```
Add the following constants to the top of the file (typically below the requires) to create the REQUEST_URL used to request data with.

Now press cmd+R and you should see "Loading movies..." until the response comes back, then it will render the first movie it fetched from Rotten Tomatoes.

## ListView
Lets now modify this application to render all of this data in a ListView, rather than just the first movie.
Why is a ListView better than just rendering all of these elements or putting them in a ScrollView? Despite React being fast, rendering a possibly infinite list of elements could be slow. ListView schedules rendering of views so that you only display the ones on screen and those already rendered but off screen are removed from the hierarchy.
First thing's first, add the ListView require to the top of the file.
```javascript
var {
AppRegistry,
Image,
ListView,
StyleSheet,
Text,
View,
} = React;
```
Now modify the render funtion so that once we have our data it renders a ListView of movies instead of a single movie.
```javascript
render: function() {
if (!this.state.loaded) {
return this.renderLoadingView();
}
return (
<ListView
dataSource={this.state.dataSource}
renderRow={this.renderMovie}
/>
);
},
```
What is this dataSource thing and why do we use it? This way we can very cheaply know which rows have changed between updates.
You'll notice we added dataSource from this.state. The next step is to add an empty dataSource to getInitialState. Also, now that we're storing the data in dataSource, we should change this.state.movies to be this.state.loaded (boolean) so we aren't storing the data twice.
```javascript
getInitialState: function() {
return {
dataSource: new ListView.DataSource({
rowHasChanged: (row1, row2) => row1 !== row2,
}),
loaded: false,
};
},
```
And here's the modified this.setState in the response handler in fetchData:
```javascript
fetchData: function() {
fetch(REQUEST_URL)
.then((response) => response.json())
.then((responseData) => {
this.setState({
dataSource: this.state.dataSource.cloneWithRows(responseData.movies),
loaded: true,
});
})
.done();
},
```
