React Native Mapbox Demo Application

This is a demo application that utilizes the Mapbox SDK to showcase the features that can be implemented in a React Native app. The application currently serves a demonstrative purpose, highlighting various functionalities of the Mapbox tool.

Features

• Visitor Reviews: The first screen displays reviews from visitors to a specific location and shows other nearby locations with colored polygons.
• Navigation: The second screen provides a navigation interface for selecting and navigating to a destination using a search bar.
• Precipitation Map: The third screen is a map displaying precipitation data.

Technologies Used

Getting Started

Follow these instructions to set up and run the application on your local machine.

Prerequisites

• Node.js
• React Native CLI
• Android Studio or Xcode (depending on your development environment)
• Mapbox API key

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/sidernes/react-native-mapbox-demo.git
   cd react-native-mapbox-demo

Getting Started

Note: Make sure you have completed the React Native - Environment Setup instructions till "Creating a new application" step, before proceeding.

Step 1: Start the Metro Server

First, you will need to start Metro, the JavaScript bundler that ships with React Native.

To start Metro, run the following command from the root of your React Native project:

# using npm
npm start

# OR using Yarn
yarn start

Step 2: Start your Application

Let Metro Bundler run in its own terminal. Open a new terminal from the root of your React Native project. Run the following command to start your Android or iOS app:

For Android

# using npm
npm run android

# OR using Yarn
yarn android

For iOS

# using npm
npm run ios

# OR using Yarn
yarn ios

If everything is set up correctly, you should see your new app running in your Android Emulator or iOS Simulator shortly provided you have set up your emulator/simulator correctly.

This is one way to run your app — you can also run it directly from within Android Studio and Xcode respectively.
