This is a simple react-native app for iOS

Requirements

Details here React Native Getting Started. But quickly

macOS and XCode (this is built for iOS and requires XCode 9+)
Node 8 or 10 and watchman, can be installed using homebrew.
- brew install node
- brew install watchman
react-native installed via the cli
- npm i -g react-native-cli or
- yarn add global react-native (yarn must be installed)
json-server for the api.
- npm i -g json-server

Setup

Clone the repo
run yarn from inside the cloned directory to install all necessary package
run yarn start to start up the react-native bundler
In another terminal and within the cloned directory run json-server --watch ./App/api/db.json
- This starts the api server.
- I have a sample db.json saved to serve a basic api with 2 endpoints (The response returned are random images and text not actual cars nor make)
  - http://localhost:3000/cars and
  - http://localhost:3000/availability
In another terminal and within the cloned directory run react-native run-ios
- This would start up the iPhone Simulator, install the application and run it.

How it all comes together

Notes

Haven't been able to update to High Sierra. I am still on Sierra with XCode 9.2 and couldn't use the awesomeness of the more recent React Native.

Bugs

When app loses connection and then regains connection, the infinite scroll does not work because onEndReach will have called already
