Core dependencies include:

  • React Native
    • Allows for the creation of native mobile applications written with Javascript
  • Native Base
    • Component and theming library that provides the foundation for this application's user interface
  • react-native-ble-manager
    • Bridges native Bluetooth Low Energy APIs

Local Development

TL;DR: run npm i and npm run start.

The instructions for setting up the development environment closely follows the instructions in React Native's documentation for setting up a development environment. Ensure that you are reading the instructions under "React Native CLI Quickstart".

This project requires Node.js 18; I highly recommend installing it with asdf and its associated node plugin.
