Taskratchet-mobile

This is a new React Native project, bootstrapped using @react-native-community/cli.

Getting Started

Note: Make sure you have completed the React Native - Environment Setup instructions till "Creating a new application" step, before proceeding.

Step 1: Start the Metro Server

First, you will need to start Metro, the JavaScript bundler that ships with React Native.

To start Metro, run the following command from the root of your React Native project:

# using npm
npm start

# OR using Yarn
yarn start

Step 2: Start your Application

Let Metro Bundler run in its own terminal. Open a new terminal from the root of your React Native project. Run the following command to start your Android or iOS app:

For Android

# Update the .zshrc file: (usualy located in /Users/Username/.zshrc)
# Open your zshrc file
nano ~/.zshrc

# Add the following lines to the bottom of the file: (modify paths if needed)
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/lukearthur/Library/Android/sdk
export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/zulu-17.jdk/Contents/Home

# Run the following command in terminal to source the .zshrc file again, or restart terminal
. ~/.zshrc
# using npm
npm run android

# OR using Yarn
yarn android

For iOS

# using npm
npm run ios

# OR using Yarn
yarn ios

If everything is set up correctly, you should see your new app running in your Android Emulator or iOS Simulator shortly provided you have set up your emulator/simulator correctly.

This is one way to run your app — you can also run it directly from within Android Studio and Xcode respectively.

Step 3: Modifying your App

Now that you have successfully run the app, let's modify it.

  1. Open App.tsx in your text editor of choice and edit some lines.

  2. For Android: Press the R key twice or select "Reload" from the Developer Menu (Ctrl + M (on Window and Linux) or Cmd ⌘ + M (on macOS)) to see your changes!

    For iOS: Hit Cmd ⌘ + R in your iOS Simulator to reload the app and see your changes!

Congratulations! 🎉

You've successfully run and modified your React Native App. 🥳

Now what?

Step 4: Modifying and Pushing to GitHub

Assuming you've cloned an existing repository, you can make modifications to the code and then push those changes back to GitHub.

# Navigate to your project directory
cd path/to/your/project

# Make sure you're on the correct branch
git checkout branch-name

# Add all modified files to the staging area
git add .

# Commit the changes
git commit -m "Describe your changes here"

# Push your changes to the GitHub repository
git push origin branch-name

Step 5: Pushing to Build

Using Expo Application Services (EAS)

Expo Application Services (EAS) is a suite of tools and services that help you build, deploy, and update your app more quickly. To use EAS, you need to install the eas-cli package globally and log in to your Expo account.

# Install eas-cli globally
npm install -g eas-cli

# Log in to your Expo account
eas login

# Build your project with one of these commands
# Use the --platform tag to select between android and ios builds
# Use the --profile tage to choose between develpoment, preview, and production build modules. These can be updated in the eas.json file.
eas build

# Submit your project to the App Store or Google Play
eas submit
