π₯ The hottest CLI for React Native: boilerplates, plugins, generators, and more. π₯
- Easily spin up a new React Native app with best practices built-in
- No runtime! This is a developer tool only, not a library you have to depend on and figure out how to upgrade
- An ever-expanding list of boilerplates and plugins to jump-start your app
- An amazing community of other Ignite / React Native developers when you need help
- Battle tested and used every day by the developers at Infinite Red and thousands of developers around the world
- Works on macOS, Windows, and Linux because not all React Native developers are on one platform
- Saves an average of two weeks on your React Native development
And you also get (by default) all of the sweet, sweet goodness of our default boilerplate, Bowser, or choose one of many others.
First, make sure you're set up for React Native
then...
Make sure you have a reasonably recent version of Node (7.6+ minimum). You can check your version of node by running
$ node -v
then...
Install Yarn for your system.
finally...
$ yarn global add ignite-cli
$ ignite new MyNewAppName
Infinite Red provides two primary boilerplates; they are:
- Andross - the tried and true (React Navigation, Redux, & Redux Saga)
- Bowser - the latest and greatest (React Navigation, MobX State Tree, & TypeScript). Why MST over redux?
