Overview:

The React Native Boilerplate is a pre-configured setup for creating React Native applications with Redux for state management. It includes popular libraries such as React, React Navigation, Redux, and Immutable. The boilerplate also provides tools like Remote Redux DevTools and RemoteDev RN Debugger for easier debugging in development mode. The installation process involves setting up the necessary tools and dependencies, and a generator tool called generator-rnb can be used to create projects with this boilerplate. The React Native Boilerplate is licensed under MIT.

Features:

• React & React Native: Enables the use of React and React Native for building the user interface.
• React Navigation: Provides a navigation solution for React Native applications.
• Redux: Facilitates state management in React Native applications.
• Remote Redux DevTools: Allows for remote debugging of Redux applications.
• RemoteDev RN Debugger: Provides debugging capabilities for React Native applications.
• Immutable: Ensures immutability of data in Redux applications.
• Babel & Plugins: Includes Babel and necessary plugins, such as transform-decorators-legacy, for language features.

Installation:

To install the React Native Boilerplate, follow these steps:

1. Install the required tools by referring to the “Getting Started” guide.
2. Optionally, you can use the generator-rnb tool to create a project with the React Native Boilerplate.
3. For development, start the local server.
4. For iOS, run the command to open the iOS simulator and run the app.
5. For Android (5.0+), open the Android emulator (recommend Genymotion) and run the command. Alternatively, connect a real device via USB.
6. In development mode, you can install React Native Debugger as the default debugger. If not installed, it will use Remote Redux DevTools and RemoteDev RN Debugger.

Summary:

The React Native Boilerplate provides a pre-configured setup for creating React Native applications with Redux. It includes essential libraries and tools for efficient development, such as React, React Navigation, Redux, Remote Redux DevTools, and RemoteDev RN Debugger. The installation process is straightforward and can be enhanced by using the generator-rnb tool. Overall, the React Native Boilerplate simplifies the setup process and improves the development experience for React Native developers.
