sschottler / music-app

Expo/React Native music app

React Native/Expo Music App

Music app for searching artists and playing previews using the Deezer API. Built from Udemy Course

Fastest way to run on phone:

1. Install expo client app and scan this qr mark:

Typing @sschottler/music-app inside of Expo Client will also open this project

I didn't bother changing the default splash screen so it'll just be a blank square for a few seconds.

To run code on your phone:

1. git clone https://github.com/sschottler/music-app.git
2. npm install
3. get free deezer api key here
4. set your api key in .env file
5. npm start
6. install expo client on your phone and scan the qrmark that pops up

if it generates the wrong URL due to docker/virtualbox/etc. you can override that in the .env file

You can also build an android apk and skip the playstore and install directly on your phone with USB. Instructions here:
