Re: Deco Software – React Native IDE
#62As a HEAVILY involved React Native developer, I am strongly suggesting you to NOT use Deco Software. It's pointless. Get Vim or Atom editor if you want to build a React Native app. There are CLI tools anyways to make your life easier. Your hardest battle will be you needing to afford a new computer to be able to run both the iOS simulator and Android simulator (or Genymotion) all at the same time. HMR reloading is al…

Care to expand your thoughts?
I tried to below, but I continously get downvoted by friends of the OP here. This thing is a joke, the time you spend reading about it and trying to get it installed/setup you could have already read the docs for RN, installed the ACTUAL React Native CLI tools that Facebook THEMSELVES! This is for people that are lazy, don't actualy build a product that gets anywhere, or prototype something that is actually junk and…
I've no idea who the OP is and I've downvoted you. Your comments are rude and inflammatory. I'd imagine most of the other downvotes are from people who feel the same, rather than friends of the OP.

#65we have been building a few react native apps at gyrosco.pe/apps we have been loving it. Interested to see if we could add this to our flow easily.
Re: Deco Software – React Native IDE
#66So I just started developing a react native Android app and a react desktop app in electron and it's actually been a very rewarding experience so far. Some thoughts I have on this: 1. I'd be interested to see the Android emulator and live reload in Deco. I'm using Genymotion and the live reload seems to work about half the time (as in I usually have to save the file twice to see my changes). It also sometimes can't c…
To point #4, if your toplevel react+electron vs. react native projects are in distinct working directories, then you can use tools like ndenv[1] to manage node/npm versions using a .node-version file at the root of each project directory, as well as a configurable 'global' default setting. ndenv is great for this, since it uses PATH to do its work, and is therefore far more widely compatible with tooling than nvm. (nvm unfortunately requires executing within a bash w/ a mess of shell functions injected into it.)

#67OR you could just install react native CLI tools, then use the BUILT IN hot module reloading (which is basically like LiveReload for web editing), and just do it yourself without this bloated piece of thing. Look how beautiful these docs are: https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/getting-started... Now would you rather rely on something that one person made? Or would you rely on a huge group of amazing folks,…

so i need to learn IOS and Android development to learn what's going on behind the scenes as well? Ideally right? But that's definitely not a prerequisite of building RN apps. Abstractions are great if its done well..
It is so sad to see people on Hacker News with so much potential, but take the easy route out, and end up with nothing.
Why the bad karma? Look, there are people that like Emacs (like me) and there are people, especially designers, that like drag-and-drop. Even if all it accomplishes is rapid prototyping, there is great value in closing the gap between UXPin and Emacs.

Look, you're clearly passionate about React-Native, but surely there has to be a better way to channel it than this?
How about an article explaining why it's better not to rely on on something like this, and why your way is better. Complete with samples to git clone. Then you can present it with your own thread. I am sure if you think about it, you'll realise it's a better approach.
I mean you don't need to trash someones project like a total klabnik. It's not a good way to live, trust me.

>It's pointless No, it's not. Prototyping.
Here's how you prototype: npm install -g react-native react-native init myproject cd myproject # open xcode simulator or android emulator # make changes to index.ios.js and read the damn docs # otherwise you end up dragging slides and dragging drop # having no idea what actually goes on behind the scenes # when if you learned what went on behind the scenes # you could code so so much faster and have so much more cont…
