This is the cross-platform client application for the Pivot platform. We build for iOS, Android, and web based on this React Native project.

React Storybook

It is worth reading this article on Design System in order to have a good idea of how we should be building some of our components and understanding Storybook in general.https://storybook.js.org

Important Storybook Links

All references to .js or .jsx should be converted to .ts or .tsx respectively.

Testing

For testing we are using React Testing Library together with Jest

GraphQL

Apollo Studio

Create a new api key here and add APOLLO_KEY to your global environment with the value of the newly created key.

• Schema Generation: We use codegen to generate our graphql schema. This helps us share types between our backend and frontend. We use Apollo Rover to download the latest schema from Apollo Studio.

Environment Variables

Please make sure you have .env with values similar to the ones in .env.example. The environment variables are loaded inside app.config.ts. This makes sure that the environment variables needed by the app are available to the application before you can build or start.

Importing and New Environment Variables.

You should only import the Config from src/config. When new variables are needed, make sure to add them to the interface, variables, .env and .env

Expo Dev Client

We have setup expo-dev-client in our app to support the bare react-native libraries in our expo manged workflow.

To start expo-dev-cleint based project run npm run start inside apps/expo. This will propmt QRCode and other options on the console, where you can selete and option for your desired platform to test your app.

If you want to start directly on a specific platform (ios/android) then run bellow inside apps/expo :

• ios npm run ios

• android npm run android

how expo-dev-client works

Above 2 scripts will build the project and launch on android/ios(device/simulator) in case you have ios/android folder inside apps/expo. Otherwise it will generate android/ios folder inside apps/expo, install dependencies (In case dependencies installation fails you can manually install by npm install inside apps/expo), pod install (for ios only), build for android/ios and launch on android/android(device/simulator).
