About RNSteem

RNSteem is an app starter project to build React Native based mobile apps for the Steem blockchain. To get a new React Native app off the ground can be difficult and time-consuming. RNSteem outlines a project structure which can be easily used to build complex apps.

The Project uses the official steem-js library to get a user's followers count and stores the information in a Redux store.

There is also a sample page to show how to store UI state in the store. The Redux store is persisted. Therefore the state is preserved between app restarts.

Furthermore, there is a sample page to switch between different languages (English and German) to allow easy localization of your application.

Technology Stack

• Babel—Next generation JavaScript
• React Native—Build native mobile apps using JavaScript and React
• CRNA—Create a React Native app on any OS with no build config
• Steem.js—Steem.js the official JavaScript library for the Steem blockchain
• NativeBase—Essential cross-platform UI components for React Native
• Styled Components—Visual primitives for the component age
• Redux—Predictable state container for JavaScript apps

Roadmap

• Authentication, Login screen to allow a user to post to the Steem blockchain
• Add drawer component
• Add settings page

Getting Started

Building the app locally on your computer should be straightforward. Just clone the app. Then install the dependencies with yarn. When the installation has finished, you can run the app with yarn start. These are the steps in more detail:

git clone https://github.com/cutemachine/rnsteem.git
cd rnsteem
yarn
yarn start

This project was bootstrapped with Create React Native App.
All the commands described in the CRNA Readme should also work with this project.

Please note that you might have to install some development tools. The app has been developed and tested on macOS running the iOS simulator, but it should also run on Android.
