Setup for local development

Prerequisites

Make sure you have installed the following before cloning the project:

• Node.js (LTS)
• Git

How to run the development build

1. Clone the project and change the directory via

git clone https://github.com/4KSHAT0p/reminis.git
cd reminis

2. Install dependencies

npx expo install

3. Generate a development build. (refer to the instructions below)

4. Start the development server

npx expo start

5. Connect an android (>10) device with usb debugging enabled.

6. Press 'a' to open on the android device.

How to generate development/ production builds:

We will need to rebuild again if:

1. We added/removed/updated native modules (like expo-notifications, react-native-maps, etc.)

2. We changed something in android/, ios/, or app.json that affects native config

3. We're upgrading Expo SDK version

4. We want to publish a new .apk or .aab for Play Store submission

5. A new user can rebuild the application by the following commands

npx expo install expo-dev-client

npm install -g eas-cli

Go to https://expo.dev to create a free account

eas login

Enter your email and password to login.

Then initialize EAS via:

eas init

For development build:

eas build --platform android --profile development

npx expo start

For production build (.aab file for publishing the app on Play Store)

eas build --platform android --profile production

Note: To build a production .apk change the eas.json file's production block as:

    "production": {
      "android": {
        "buildType": "apk"
      }
    }
