🔎 Route

1. Part 1 - The beginning of the React Native specialization
   • Build the project prototype: https://www.figma.com/file/15HnazfsI1NFV13fIXy1wu/React-Native-Insider-5?node-id=0%3A1
   • Install VS Code (IDE)
   • Install "R Component" extension at VS Code
   • Install Expo CLI: npm install --global expo-cli
   • Create a new project: expo init my-app (bare workflow)
   • Navigate to project directory: cd my-app
   • Open the project on VS Code: code .
   • Change App.js to App.tsx
   • Create and set tsconfig.json at root
   • Install Native Base on project:
     • yarn add native-base
     • expo install react-native-svg
     • expo install react-native-safe-area-context
   • Install React Navigation on project:
     • expo install @react-navigation/native
     • expo install react-native-screens
     • expo install react-native-safe-area-context
     • expo install @react-navigation/native-stack
   • Start the development server: expo start
   • Configure the Expo Go on a mobile device or use an emulator
   • Open the app on a mobile device:
     • On your iPhone or iPad, open the default Apple "Camera" app and scan the QR code you see in the terminal
     • On your Android device, press "Scan QR Code" on the "Projects" tab of the Expo Go app and scan the QR code you see in the terminal.


2. Part 2 - Visual design project & Navigation
   • Set project assets and styles
   • Install fonts on project: expo install expo-font @expo-google-fonts/roboto
   • Create screens:
     • Signin.tsx

     • Order.tsx
     • Header.tsx
     • CardDetails.tsx
   • Create DTOs (Data Transfer Object):
     • OrderFirestoreDTO.ts
   • Procedure to project recognize svg files:
     • Install React-Native-SVG-Transformer library: yarn add --dev react-native-svg-transformer

   • Apply useRoute hook at Details screen: ./src/screens/Details.tsx
   
   
3. Part 3 - Integration with Firebase
• We still can't run Firebase in Expo Go development environment. Set the environment:
