React Native Starter Kit

Requirements

• The easiest way to set up the application and join the development is to use Android Studio.
• By using Android Studio you do not have to mess with:
• Gradle
• failed to find Build Tools revision 23.0.1
• Failed to resolve: com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.0.3

Setup Android Studio on Arch Linux

yaourt -S jre jdk android-studio

Add the following lines to your .bashrc and restart your terminal once.

export ANDROID_HOME=~/Android/Sdk
export PATH=~/Android/Sdk/platform-tools:$PATH

Run Android Studio using a tiling window manager

If you are using dwm - or other window managers, and you'd like to run Java application that has a UI, you'll have to add (sleep 4 && wmname LG3D) & to your .xinitrc just before exec dwm.

Run Emulated device

Open Android Studio. Go to Tools / Android / AVD Manager. Create and start your emulated device.

Create a project like this one

npm install react-native-cli -g

react-native init ProjectNameHere
