A simple gym tracking application written in react native.

gym-tracker-react-native

TLDR Description

Native android app written in React Native - to record workouts in the gym. Hooked into a Node-Express-Mongo server hosted on AWS EC2.

Description

This is part of a MERN app hosted on AWS. The backend is a MongoDB database hosted on Mongo Atlas, accessed through a Node-Express server (running on an AWS EC2 instance). The initial inspiration for this project was to open up my gym data so I can monitor my fitness and gym performance more closely, importing it into a database for trend analysis (which will form another project).

Technologies Used:

• React Native
• React Navigation
• Redux
• Javascript ES6
• MongoDB
• Node server (Mongoose, Express) (in another repo here: HERE)
• Authentication
• React native paper
• AWS

What I would do differently:

• Implement Redux from the very beginning, instead of refactoring several times to implement redux.
• Plan the data flow from the beginning and design the architecture around this.
• Host the Node server on AWS Elastic Beanstalk.
• Implement unit testing from the beginning.

Future plans (in no particular order):

• Add password hashing.
• Complete Redux refactoring.
• Seperate logic and style components.
• Enfore HTTPS in the server.
• Move the Node server from EC2 to AWS Elastic Beanstalk.
• Complete styling.
• Google and Facebook authentication.
• A web-app to enable access to historical data.
