Getting Started

1. Clone and Install

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/tientran0019/react-native-boilerplate-with-expo.git

# Install dependencies
yarn

2. Secrets

If you are developing an extension that talks with some API you probably are using different keys for testing and production. Is a good practice you not commit your secret keys and expose to anyone that have access to the repository.

Create a .env file in the root directory of your project. Add environment-specific variables on new lines in the form of NAME=VALUE. For example:

API_URL=https://api.example.com/api/v1/
WEB_URL=https://example.com

process.env now has the keys and values you defined in your .env file.

If you need more than one environment. Let's create a .env.production file for the production environment.

3. Open RNS with Expo

First, you need to install Expo CLI (if you don't have it yet). You can do it by running the following command in terminal:

npm install expo-cli --global

Then you can start the project by going to the project's folder and running there:

expo start

That's it! Cool, right?
