Planning and Setting Up the Funbook App
In the previous chapter, we learned how to set up a React Native app. The steps we followed, installing dependencies and building and running the app, are common for most apps you may want to build. Now, it’s time to focus on the specifics of the app we will be building in this book. We want to create a social media clone app so that we can compare different state management solutions in that app. In this chapter, we will plan and build our example app using only React Native built-in solutions – state, props, hooks, and context. We will take the following steps:
- Planning the needed surfaces and components
- Planning data flows in the app
- Getting comfortable previewing and debugging the app
By the end of this chapter, you will have a good idea of planning out development work for the Funbook app. You will also find out how to work comfortably with a React Native app.
