React NativeScript Blank Template

App templates help you jump start your native cross-platform apps with built-in UI elements and best practices. Save time writing boilerplate code over and over again when you create new apps.

Quick Start from NPM package

Execute the following command to create an app from this template:

tns create my-blank-react --template tns-template-blank-react

cd my-blank-react
npm install

tns preview
# or
tns run android
# or
tns run ios

Note: This command will create a new NativeScript app that uses the latest version of this template published to npm.

Quick start from the latest master

tns create my-blank-react --template https://github.com/shirakaba/tns-template-blank-react/tarball/master

Building from a local clone of the repo

If you want to create a new app that uses the source of the template from the master branch, you can execute the following:

# clone nativescript-app-templates monorepo locally
git clone https://github.com/shirakaba/tns-template-blank-react.git

# create app template from local source (all templates are in the 'packages' subfolder of the monorepo)
tns create my-blank-react --template tns-template-blank-react

cd my-blank-react
npm install

tns preview
# or
tns run android
# or
tns run ios

NB: Please, keep in mind that the master branch may refer to dependencies that are not on NPM yet!

Walkthrough

Architecture

There is a single blank component located in:

• /components/AppContainer.tsx - sets up an empty page layout.

Home page has the following components:

• $ActionBar - It holds the title of the page.
• $GridLayout - The main page layout that should contains all the page content.
