React Native and React Native Web Monorepo

A monorepo with a mobile and web app using React Native and React Native Web. Parcel Bundler was used to bundle the web application.

The approach uses a symlink to the shared folder in the mobile app.

This was based on the Web and mobile apps using React Native Web tutorial on YouTube by Robin Heinze.

Getting Started

Setting up the development environment for React Native

Follow the instructions on the Setting up the development environment page of the React Native website.

Local Development

Clone the repo.
Run yarn install in the mobile and web directory.
Run pod install in the mobile/ios directory.
Copy the full path of the mobile/app/shared directory and run the following command in the terminal in the web directory to create a symlink:

For MacOS:
```
ls -s <full-path-to-mobile-app-share> shared
```
The mobile/shared folder is now shared between the mobile and web app.
In the mobile directory, run yarn ios && yarn android to start the iOS and Android app, respectively.
In the web directory, run yarn start to start the web server.
Make changes to the files in the mobile/shared folder to see changes in the iOS, Android and Web apps.
