+Since React makes no assumptions about the rest of your technology stack – it’s commonly noted as simply the `V` in `MVC` – it’s easily embeddable within an existing non-React Native app. In fact, it integrates with other best practice community tools like [CocoaPods](http://cocoapods.org/).

 ## Install React Native Using CocoaPods
 
 [CocoaPods](http://cocoapods.org/) is a package management tool for iOS/Mac development. We need to use it to download React Native. If you haven't install CocoaPods yet, checkout [this tutorial](http://guides.cocoapods.org/using/getting-started.html).

 ## Conclusion
 
-So under the hood, when **RCTRootView** is initialized, it will try to download, parse and run the bundle file from React Native development server. All you need to do is to implement your own container view, add **RCTRootView** as its subclass. And then serve the bundle using React Native development server. Then, bravo!
