Automatic Installation

It is recommended starting a new Reactylon Native app using create-reactylon-app, which sets up everything automatically for you. The project is built with React 18 and React Native 0.74.2. To create a project, run:

npx create-reactylon-app MyApp --native

create-reactylon-app will create a folder named MyApp with your project name and install the required dependencies. If everything went as expected, you should see an output like the following:

✔ Creating a new Reactylon Native app in MyApp.
✔ Installing packages. This might take a couple of minutes.
 
Reactylon Native app successful created.

Your file system will contain a new folder named MyApp and it will look like this:

- App.tsx
- Content.tsx
.eslintrc.js
.gitignore
.prettierrc.js
.watchmanconfig
app.json
babel.config.js
Gemfile
index.js
jest.config.js
metro.config.js
package-lock.json
package.json
README.md
tsconfig.json

Now move on MyApp folder and start Metro development server:

cd MyApp
npm start

Let Metro Bundler run in its own terminal. Open a new terminal inside your Reactylon Native project folder and follow the guide for Android or iOS.

⚠️

Be sure that ADB debugging is enabled on your device.

To launch the app on your Android device, execute the following command:

npm run android

Regardless of your platform, you should see an output similar to the following:

⚠️

To ensure proper functionality, Reactylon Native requires that dependencies be forcefully installed. Therefore, each time you need to reinstall initial dependencies, use the command npm install --force.
