Small nitpicks: The point of react is that it DOESN'T refresh. It maintains a virtual DOM which is faster to update and diff than the regular browser DOM, which you hinted at. No libraries necessary to do routing, but they do make it easier and better.

This however is a React Native application which doesn't have the same (browser) backend or requirements. It's native code. There is no refresh or routing per se.

That all said, the start menu is an abomination of the highest order. It just isn't really React's fault. People just love to hate on React and . React also gets a bad rap because it's so ubiquitous and easy to start using that novices and morons alike can make atrociously slow, bloated web apps with it.
