App config

This is guideline to help you install ZiniStore App (React Native)

Setup environment

Before you start to run on iOS, make sure you were setting up the development environment (https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup).

NOTE: The instructions are a bit different depending on your development operating system, and whether you want to start developing for iOS or Android. you MUST pick one to start with, since the setup is a bit different (screenshot)

2/ Unzip file ZiniStore.zip inside the app folder.

3/ Open Visual Studio Code and go to ZiniStore project source code

If TERMINAL tab was not display, you have to open from menu: View > Terminal

From Visual Code Terminal , install the independence packages:

npm install

Run on Android devices

react-native run-android

If everything is set up correctly, you should see your new app running in your Android/iOS emulator shortly.
