craigrhodes/react-native repository overview

⁠To create a new react native project

docker run -it --rm -v "$PWD:/app" craigrhodes/react-native create-react-native-app <app_name>

Replace <app_name> with whatever you want to call your react native app.

⁠To run:

Go into the top-level project directory and run the command:

docker run -it --rm -p 19000:19000 -p 19001:19001 -v "$PWD:/app" -e REACT_NATIVE_PACKAGER_HOSTNAME=<your_ip_address> craigrhodes/react-native

Be sure to replace <your_ip_address> with your computer's actual public hostname or IP address.

When the terminal prints a QR code, scan it from the Expo client app from an iOS or Android device. Don't forget to shake the device to disable Live Reloading, then shake again to enable Hot Reloading!
