WeVoteReactNative has been deprecated in favor of WebApp

For our mobile apps, we bundle https://github.com/wevote/WebApp with https://github.com/wevote/WeVoteCordova.

Running the app:

From within the root directory after cloning,

Run:

npm install

This will add all required dependencies from package.json

Alternatively, if you use yarn, run:

yarn install

To run on iOS:

react-native run-ios

To run on android:

react-native run-android

We Vote React Native - README Home

This repository contains We Vote's iOS and Android versions built with ReactNative. It is being built based on specifications created and tested in the We Vote WebApp Using data we have gathered in our API Server from Google Civic API, Vote Smart, MapLight, TheUnitedStates.io and the Voting Information Project. We give voters a social way to interact with ballot data.

Interested in volunteering? Starting presentation here. Please also read about our values and see our Code of Conduct

You can see our current wireframe mockup for a San Francisco ballot here: http://start.wevoteusa.org/

And finally, the current live demo version of the mobile website version is here: https://wevote.me (Our iPhone and Android versions are not available to the public yet.)

Writing Cross-Platform Apps with React Native

Our commentary: If you know ReactJS, the transition to React Native is very logical -- BUT we are finding that all rendering is new code, and we are not able to bring over too much from our wevote/WebApp repo. We believe that we will be able to use the same data Store and Action code.

The React Native documentation is a great place to start.

These are some videos which'll give you a brief overview of React Native.
