App templates
This folder contains basic app templates. These get expanded by 'react-native init' when creating a new app to make it easier for anyone to get started.
Chat Example
This is an example React Native app demonstrates ListViews, text input and navigation between a few screens.
Purpose
One problem with React Native is that it is not trivial to get started: react-native init
creates a very simple app that renders some text. Everyone then has to figure out how to do very basic things such as adding a list of items fetched from a server, navigating to a screen when a list item is tapped, or handling text input.
This app is a template used by react-native init
so it is easier for anyone to get up and running quickly by having an app with a few screens, a ListView
and a TextInput
that works well with the software keyboard.
Best practices
Another purpose of this app is to define best practices such as:
- The folder structure of a standalone React Native app
- A style guide for JavaScript and React - for this we use the AirBnb style guide
- Naming conventions
We need your feedback to settle on a good set of best practices. Have you built React Native apps? If so, please use the issues in the repo mkonicek/ChatExample to discuss what you think are the best practices that this example should be using.
