-Another basic React Native component is the [`Image`](/react-native/docs/image.html#content) component. Like `Text`, the `Image` component simply renders an image.
-
-> An `Image` is analogous to the `<img>` HTML tag when building websites.
-
-The simplest way to render an image is to provide a source file to that image via the `source` attribute.
-
-This example displays a checkbox `Image` on the device.

-Given the screen sizes of mobile devices, the ability to scroll through data is generally paramount for a proper usability experience.
-
-The [`ScrollView`](/react-native/docs/scrollview.html) is a generic scrolling container that can host multiple components and views. The scrollable items need not be homogenous, and you can scroll both vertically and horizontally (by setting the `horizontal` property).
-
-`ScrollView` works best to present a list of short, static items of a known quantity. All the elements and views of a `ScrollView` are rendered a priori, even if they are not currently shown on the screen. Contrast this with a `ListView`, which render only those views that are on the screen and remove views that go off-screen.
-
-> [`TextView`](/react-native/docs/basics-component-textview.html) and [`ListView`](/react-native/docs/basics-component-listview.html) are specialized scrollable containers.

-Components are the building blocks for a React Native application. A React Native user interface (UI) is specified by declaring components, often nested. Those components are then mapped to the native UI on the targeted platform.
-
-####Props####
-
-#####`this.props`#####
-
-Components can be configured by passing properties `props` to the constructor. You can access `props` from your component's methods by accessing `this.props`. You should not alter your props within component methods.
-
-####State####
-
-#####`this.state`#####
-
-Components maintain their state using the state object. You can access your component state via `this.state`. Each component should manage its own state. Parent components should not manage children state and children components should not manage parent component state.
-
-#####`this.setState({key: value, ...})`#####
-
-To update or change the state of your component passing a new object representing your newly desired state to `this.setState(obj)`. The specificed keys will be merged into `this.state`. Any existing keys will be overridden by new values.

-## Core Components.

-React Native has a number of core components that are commonly used in applications, either on their own or combined to build new components.

+
+[`TextInput`](/react-native/docs/textinput.html#content) is a basic component that allows the user to enter text. It has an `onChangeText` prop that takes
+a function to be called every time the text changed.
+
+This example shows how to count the number of characters that have been typed in a box.
+
+```ReactNativeWebPlayer
+import React, { Component } from 'react';
+import { AppRegistry, Text, TextInput, View } from 'react-native';
+
+class CharacterCounter extends Component {
+  constructor(props) {
+    super(props);
+    this.state = {text: ''};
+  }
+
+  render() {
+    return (
+      <View style={{padding: 10}}>
+        <TextInput
+          style={{height: 40}}
+          placeholder="Pleeeease type on me!"
+          onChangeText={(text) => this.setState({text})}
+        />
+        <Text style={{padding: 10}}>{this.state.text.length}</Text>
+      </View>
+    );
+  }
+}
+
+AppRegistry.registerComponent('CharacterCounter', () => CharacterCounter);
+```
+
+In this example, we store `text` in the state, because it changes over time.
+
+There are a lot more advanced things you might want to do with a text input. For example, you could validate the text inside while the user types. For more detailed examples, see the [React docs on controlled components](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/forms.html), or the [reference docs for TextInput](/react-native/docs/textinput.html).
+
+Text input is probably the simplest example of a component whose state naturally changes over time. Next, let's look at another type of component like this is one that controls layout, and [learn about the ScrollView](/react-native/docs/using-a-scrollview.html).

+
+Most components can be customized when they are created, with different parameters. These creation parameters are called `props`.
+
+For example, one basic React Native component is the `Image`. When you
+create an image, you can use a prop named `source` to control what image it shows.
+
+```ReactNativeWebPlayer
+import React, { Component } from 'react';
+import { AppRegistry, Image } from 'react-native';
+
+class Bananas extends Component {
+  render() {
+    let pic = {
+      uri: 'https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/de/Bananavarieties.jpg'
+    };
+    return (
+      <Image source={pic} />
+    );
+  }
+}
+
+AppRegistry.registerComponent('Bananas', () => Bananas);
+```
+
+Notice that `{pic}` is surrounded by braces, to embed the variable `pic` into JSX. You can put any JavaScript expression inside braces in JSX.
+
+Your own components can also use `props`. This lets you make a single component
+that is used in many different places in your app, with slightly different
+properties in each place. Just refer to `this.props` in your `render` function. Here's an example:
+
+```ReactNativeWebPlayer
+import React, { Component } from 'react';
+import { AppRegistry, Text, View } from 'react-native';
+
+class Greeting extends Component {
+  render() {
+    return (
+      <Text>Hello {this.props.name}!</Text>
+    );
+  }
+}
+
+class LotsOfGreetings extends Component {
+  render() {
+    return (
+      <View style={{alignItems: 'center'}}>
+        <Greeting name='Rexxar' />
+        <Greeting name='Jaina' />
+        <Greeting name='Valeera' />
+      </View>
+    );
+  }
+}
+
+AppRegistry.registerComponent('LotsOfGreetings', () => LotsOfGreetings);
+```
+
+Using `name` as a prop lets us customize the `Greeting` component, so we can reuse that component for each of our greetings. This example also uses the `Greeting` component in JSX, just like the built-in components. The power to do this is what makes React so cool - if you find yourself wishing that you had a different set of UI primitives to work with, you just invent new ones.
+
+The other new thing going on here is the [`View`](/react-native/docs/view.html) component. A [`View`](/react-native/docs/view.html) is useful
+as a container for other components, to help control style and layout.
+
+With `props` and the basic [`Text`](/react-native/docs/text.html), [`Image`](/react-native/docs/image.html), and [`View`](/react-native/docs/view.html) components, you can
+build a wide variety of static screens. To learn how to make your app change over time, you need to [learn about State](/react-native/docs/state.html).

+There are two types of data that control a component: `props` and `state`. `props` are set by the parent and they are fixed throughout the lifetime of a component. For data that is going to change, we have to use `state`.
+
+In general, you should initialize `state` in the constructor, and then call `setState` when you want to change it.
+
+For example, let's say we want to make text that blinks all the time. The text itself gets set once when the blinking component gets created, so the text itself is a `prop`. The "whether the text is currently on or off" changes over time, so that should be kept in `state`.

+
+In a real application, you probably won't be setting state with a timer. You might set state when you have new data arrive from the server, or from user input. You can also use a state container like [Redux](http://redux.js.org/index.html) to control your data flow. In that case you would use Redux to modify your state rather than calling `setState` directly.
+
+State works the same way as it does in React, so for more details on handling state, you can look at the [React.Component API](https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/component-api.html).
+
+At this point, you might be annoyed that most of our examples so far use boring default black text. To make things more beautiful, you will have to [learn about Style](/react-native/docs/style.html).

 With React Native, you don't use a special language or syntax for  defining styles. You just style your application using JavaScript. All of the core components accept a prop named `style`. The style names and values usually match how CSS works on the web, except names are written like `backgroundColor` instead of like `background-color`.

+React Native is like React, but it uses native components instead of web components as building blocks. So to understand the basic structure of a React Native app, you need to understand some of the basic React concepts, like JSX, components, `state`, and `props`. If you already know React, you still need to learn some React-Native-specific stuff, like the native components. This
+tutorial is aimed at all audiences, whether you have React experience or not.
+
+Let's do this thing.
+
+## Hello World
+
+In accordance with the ancient traditions of our people, we must first build an app that does nothing except say "Hello world". Here it is:
+
+```ReactNativeWebPlayer
+import React, { Component } from 'react';
+import { AppRegistry, Text } from 'react-native';
+
+class HelloWorldApp extends Component {
+  render() {
+    return (
+      <Text>Hello world!</Text>
+    );
+  }
+}
+
+AppRegistry.registerComponent('HelloWorldApp', () => HelloWorldApp);
+```
+
+If you are feeling curious, you can play around with sample code directly in the web simulators. You can also paste it into your `index.ios.js` or `index.android.js` file to create a real app on your local machine.
+
+## What's going on here?
+
+Some of the things in here might not look like JavaScript to you. Don't panic. This is the future.
+
+First of all, ES2015 (also known as ES6) is a set of improvements to JavaScript that is now part of the official standard, but not yet supported by all browsers, so often it isn't used yet in web development. React Native ships with ES2015 support, so you can use this stuff without worrying about compatibility. `import`, `from`, `class`, `extends`, and the `() =>` syntax in the example above are all ES2015 features. If you aren't familiar with ES2015, you can probably pick it up just by reading through sample code like this tutorial has. If you want, [this page](https://babeljs.io/docs/learn-es2015/) has a good overview of ES2015 features.
+
+The other unusual thing in this code example is `<Text>Hello world!</Text>`. This is JSX - a syntax for embedding XML within JavaScript. Many frameworks use a special templating language which lets you embed code inside markup language. In React, this is reversed. JSX lets you write your markup language inside code. It looks like HTML on the web, except instead of web things like `<div>` or `<span>`, you use React components. In this case, `<Text>`
+is a built-in component that just displays some text.
+
+## Component and AppRegistry
+
+So this code is defining `HelloWorldApp`, a new `Component`, and it's registering it with the `AppRegistry`. When you're building a React Native app, you'll be making new components a lot. Anything you see on the screen is some sort of component. A component can be pretty simple - the only thing that's required is a `render` function which returns some JSX to render.
+
+The `AppRegistry` just tells React Native which component is the root one for the whole application. You won't be thinking about `AppRegistry` a lot - there will probably just be one call to `AppRegistry.registerComponent` in your whole app. It's included in these examples so you can paste the whole thing into your `index.ios.js` or `index.android.js` file and get it running.
+
+## This App Doesn't Do Very Much
+
+Good point. To make components do more interesting things, you need to [learn about Props](/react-native/docs/props.html).

+The [`ScrollView`](/react-native/docs/scrollview.html) is a generic scrolling container that can host multiple components and views. The scrollable items need not be homogenous, and you can scroll both vertically and horizontally (by setting the `horizontal` property).
+
+This example creates a vertical `ScrollView` with both images and text mixed together.

+`ScrollView` works best to present a small amount of things of a limited size. All the elements and views of a `ScrollView` are rendered, even if they are not currently shown on the screen. If you have a long list of more items that can fit on the screen, you should use a `ListView` instead. So let's [learn about the ListView](/react-native/docs/using-a-listview.html) next.
