Throughout the book, we touched on a lot of React Native SDKs. However, there were some components where their additions didn't fit with the apps we built.

Write a playground application where we will add components and parts of the React Native API that we did not get to work with in the prior projects
Use the Fetch API to make network calls to a third-party resource
Utilize the Vibration API to physically vibrate the user's phone
Make use of the Linking API have your app open a third-party app with a registered link
