Summary: Update the template that will be used by `react-native init --template navigation`. The goal is to make it easier for people to get started by demonstrating a few very basic concepts such as navigation, lists and text input. **Test plan (required)** <img src="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/346214/22697898/ced66f52-ed4a-11e6-9b90-df6daef43199.gif" alt="Android Example" height="800" style="float: left"/> <img src="https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/346214/22697901/cfeab3e4-ed4a-11e6-8552-d76585317ac2.gif" alt="iOS Example" height="800"/> Closes https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/12260 Differential Revision: D4521758 Pulled By: mkonicek fbshipit-source-id: d7d9e481dd3373917ac68ec9169b9ac3267547a9 |

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
cd ChatExample
yarn
react-native run-ios
react-native run-android
(In case you want to use react-navigation master):
# Install dependencies:
cd react-navigation
yarn
yarn pack --filename react-navigation-1.0.0-alpha.tgz
cd ChatExample
yarn
yarn add ~/code/react-navigation/react-navigation-1.0.0-alpha.tgz
