Overview

This block generates a simple React Native mobile app using create-react-native-app v1.0.0 as a boilerplate that we modify.

Usage

Add the following to your gig.yaml to create a new block called mobile using block-create-react-native-app. Make sure to replace VERSION with the specific version of the module. The latest version can be found here.

blocks:
  - name: mobile
    location: 'npm:@gigster/block-create-react-native-app@VERSION'

After generating your project, you can cd into the new mobile directory. To launch the packager, simply run:

yarn install
yarn start

From there you will have options to run your app on a mobile device or emulator.

Note: The packager may request that you either install watchman or increase your file limits with the following commands:

sudo sysctl -w kern.maxfiles=5242880
sudo sysctl -w kern.maxfilesperproc=524288

You must do one of these to get your app up and running.
