A common issue is that the packager is not started automatically when you run
2016-05-06 03:25:25 +00:00
`react-native run-android` . You can start it manually using:
2015-09-14 14:35:58 +00:00
2016-05-06 03:25:25 +00:00
```
cd AwesomeProject
react-native start
```
2016-05-09 16:57:21 +00:00
< block class = "windows android" / >
2016-05-06 03:25:25 +00:00
Or if you hit a `ERROR Watcher took too long to load` on Windows, try increasing the timeout in [this file ](https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/5fa33f3d07f8595a188f6fe04d6168a6ede1e721/packager/react-packager/src/DependencyResolver/FileWatcher/index.js#L16 ) (under your `node_modules/react-native/` ).

### Modifying Project
Now that you successfully started the project, let's modify it:
2016-05-09 16:57:21 +00:00
- Open `index.android.js` in your text editor of choice (e.g. [Nuclide ](http://nuclide.io/docs/platforms/react-native/ )) and edit some lines.
2016-05-10 18:16:23 +00:00
- Press the `R` key twice **OR** open the menu (F2 by default, or ctrl-M in the emulator) and select Reload JS to see your change!
2015-09-24 14:18:42 +00:00
- Run `adb logcat *:S ReactNative:V ReactNativeJS:V` in a terminal to see your app's logs
2015-09-14 14:35:58 +00:00
2016-05-06 03:25:25 +00:00
### That's It
2015-09-15 22:09:32 +00:00
2015-09-10 04:08:58 +00:00
Congratulations! You've successfully run and modified your first React Native app.
