Over the past few months, I've been working on a side project to gain an understanding of the React Native workflow. I decided to create a Hacker News reader using Y Combinator's API.

1. Clone the repo
2. $ cd HackerBuzz-ReactNative
3. Run either $ yarn install or $ npm install

I used the Facebook Audience Network in order to display advertisements every 20 stories. As a result, you need to make sure that the SDK is properly installed or else the project won't build.

1. Make sure that cocoapods are installed
   • $ sudo gem install cocoapods
2. $ pod install
3. Open HackerBuzz.xcworkspace
4. Modify jsCodeLocation to point to your IP address in AppDelegate.m
5. If you wish display ads, make sure that you create a placement within the Facebook Developer console or else they won't appear.
   • Getting Started with the Facebook SDK
   • Getting Started with The Facebook Audience Network
   • Modify kFacebookAdPlacementId within StoryListAd.m
6. Run via XCode or $ react-native run-ios

1. Build the Android project
2. Add the Facebook SDK to the project as per these instructions
3. If you wish display ads, make sure that you create a placement within the Facebook Developer console or else they won't appear.
   • Getting Started with the Facebook SDK
   • Getting Started with The Facebook Audience Network
   • Modify PLACEMENT_ID within RNTNativeAdManager.java
4. Run via Android Studio

The project currently contains test for the actions and reducers within /js/__tests__/. Mocks are located within js/__mocks__/ In order to execute these tests, run $ npm test.

• $ npm bundle-ios - Bundle code for an iOS release build
• $ npm bundle-android - Bundle code for an Android release build
• $ npm test - Run unit tests
• $ lint-fix - Run linter
