Env Setup and Wireless Connection to JS server using physical android device : https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup

1. Navigate to the cloned repository

   cd CollegeSpace

   cd frontend

   yarn install

   If yarn is not found npm install -g yarn
2. Open a terminal from the current directory i.e. CollegeSpace/frontend and run the following command to start the metro bundler

   npx react-native start --reset-cache

3. [Android] Let Metro Bundler of previous step run in its own terminal. Open a new terminal inside from the current directory i.e. CollegSpace/frontend. Run the following:

   npx react-native run-android

   [Make sure to useyarn install if there are errors]

Physical device USB connection

Follow docs and also do adb reverse port 5000 along with 8081 for flask server access

adb -s <device  name> reverse tcp:8081 tcp:8081
adb -s <device  name> reverse tcp:5000 tcp:5000

Sidhant's Device:

adb -s ZF6224Z7QQ reverse tcp:8081 tcp:8081
adb -s ZF6224Z7QQ reverse tcp:5000 tcp:5000

Can use SCRCPY to cast device to PC

Physical device wireless connection

Note: Flask server isn't connected with this method

To find the devices: adb devices

1. Make sure your laptop and your phone are on the same Wi-Fi network.
2. Open your React Native app on your device.
3. You'll see a red screen with an error. This is OK. The following steps will fix that.
4. Open the in-app [Developer menu] (https://reactnative.dev/docs/debugging#accessing-the-in-app-developer-menu). To open the dev menu: adb shell input keyevent 82
5. Go to Dev Settings → Debug server host & port for device.
6. Type in your machine's IP address and the port of the local dev server (e.g. 10.0.1.1:8081). ipconfig to find your machine's IP address
7. Go back to the Developer menu and select Reload JS.

using XAMPP (Apache and MySQL) and make these changes after starting Apache and Mysql(Stop MySQL Workbench service from services to freeup port 3306) in XAMMP->Apache->Config->php.ini

Find:
post_max_size = 8M
upload_max_filesize = 2M
max_execution_time = 30
max_input_time = 60
memory_limit = 8M

Change to:
post_max_size = 750M
upload_max_filesize = 750M
max_execution_time = 5000
max_input_time = 5000
memory_limit = 1000M

Normally Exported sql Script does not have create database syntax. So you should create a database using phpMyAdmin and then import SQL file using phpMyAdmin (XAMMP->MySQL->Admin)
