React Native Boilerplate
A feature oriented react native boilerplate using functional patterns and tools
Overview
The CircleCI Codecov Maintainability React Native Boilerplate is a well-structured foundation for building applications using React Native. This boilerplate is tailored to developers who prefer a feature-oriented approach with functional programming patterns. With a well-defined architecture and clear setup instructions, it offers a consistent way to kick-start React Native projects while promoting best practices in maintainability and testing.
The emphasis on using JavaScript with Flow instead of TypeScript sets it apart, catering to those looking for type safety without introducing the additional complexity of TypeScript. This boilerplate has been designed to streamline the development process from initial setup to deployment and ensures that developers can focus on building rather than configuring.
Features
- Easy Setup: Provides a quick start guide to get your project up and running in no time without hassle.
- Testing Support: Integrated unit testing functionality that runs tests on every code change, helping maintain code quality.
- Code Coverage Reports: Automatically generates code coverage reports, which can be useful for ensuring high test coverage.
- Debugging Tools: Offers standard and advanced debugging options via Chrome and a standalone React Native Debugger for comprehensive error tracking.
- Deployment Workflow: Simplifies the deployment process with clear instructions for publishing to Expo, handling both staging and production environments.
- Environment Configuration: Easy management of environment variables directly within configuration files, allowing straightforward updates during deployments.
- Build Information Display: Automatically shows crucial build information (app version, build time, environment) in the app, keeping team members informed.
- Slack Notifications: Integration capabilities to notify team members about new builds via Slack and options for uploading source maps to error reporting services such as Sentry.
- React
React is a widely used JavaScript library for building user interfaces and single-page applications. It follows a component-based architecture and uses a virtual DOM to efficiently update and render UI components
- React Native
React Native is a framework for building mobile applications using React and JavaScript. It enables developers to write once and deploy to multiple platforms, including iOS, Android, and the web, while providing a native app-like experience to users.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Expo
An open-source platform for making universal native apps with React. Expo runs on Android, iOS, and the web.
- Redux
Redux is a state management library for JavaScript apps that provides a predictable and centralized way to manage application state. It enables developers to write actions and reducers that update the state in response to user interactions, server responses, and other events, and can be used with a variety of front-end frameworks and back-end technologies.
- Formik
Formik is a popular form library for React that helps with form state management, validation, and submission handling. It provides a declarative approach to building forms with support for complex validation scenarios and easy integration with validation libraries like Yup.
