Summary:
I am starting fresh on a new Mac and took another stab at the instructions.
- Java SDK 7 seems to work just fine.
- Adjusted Custom Android Studio installation instructions to use bare minimum required.
- Updated AVD configuration instructions with necessary changes to run AVD the first time.
- Added note on using real devices.
- Removed notes warning against use of API Level 23, these do not belong on a Getting Started guide.
- Added step to install Xcode Command Line Tools.
- Use `.profile` over `.bashrc` as the latter is shell-specific and is not loaded on login shells (e.g. new Terminal windows). `.profile` will work on bash, however, which is the default macOS shell.
- Added screenshots.
Went through steps for setting up RN for iOS as well as Android on a new Mac. Ended with apps running on the iOS Simulator and a AVD.
Generated website and verified instructions rendered correctly for each of the OS/device permutations.
