Overview:
The React Native Elements App is a demo app built with Expo to showcase the usage of various UI components provided by React Native Elements. The app is designed to work on both mobile and web platforms using React Native Web. By using Expo, the app can be built once and deployed anywhere, making it easier to create a React Native mobile app that can also be used on the web.
Features:
- UI Toolkit: React Native Elements provides a collection of production-ready UI components for React Native, allowing developers to focus on building unique features for their app.
- Mobile and Web Support: The app can be used on both mobile and web platforms, thanks to React Native Web.
- Expo Integration: The app is built using Expo, reducing the effort required to build and deploy the app across multiple platforms.
Installation:
To run the app locally, follow these steps:
Install Expo CLI:
npm install -g expo-cli
Clone the project:
git clone [project-url]
Install dependencies:
cd [project-directory] npm install
Run the app (uses Expo):
npm start
To deploy the web app, follow these additional steps:
Set correct publicPath in app.web-build.json.
Build the web app:
npm run build:web
This will generate a web-build folder.
Host the web-build folder as a static website. For example, you can publish it on GitHub Pages using the gh-pages CLI.
Note: Make sure to add or change the “homepage” key in your package.json.
