Summary: Currently when we change the app name in `app.json`, run `react-native eject` and then run the application, we get the following error `Application HelloWorld2 has not been registered` <img src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6805530/34646396-9a68ccd0-f38c-11e7-9a49-9f985dc20f14.png" width="33%" /> This PR picks up the app name from app.json while registering the application, which prevents the additional step for the user to change the app name while registering in the `index.js` Tested using sinopia. The new app generated with the `react-native init HelloWorld` contains the changes made. [CLI] [ENHANCEMENT] [index.js] - App name picked from from app.json for registering application.

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.
Running the app locally
