The MovieDB React-Native Challenge

Find a directory you'd like to clone the repository into, and run the following command.

git clone https://github.com/Oscar-Kwan/themoviedb-reactnative.git

Assuming that Node8+ is installed, you can utilize npm to install Expo CLI command line utility

npm install -g expo-cli

Install the node_modules.

npm install

npm start

The application will not run without an API key, so please look below for instructions.

For iOS/Android, please also download Expo Client to view the React Native application.

Retrieving an API Key

Go to themoviedb website as you'll need an API key to make this application.

Create an account there and verify the user via email. After that, follow these steps to grab your API key.

1. Click on your avatar or initials in the main navigation
2. Click the "Settings" Link
3. Click the "API" link in the left sidebar
4. Click "Create" or "click here" on the API page

You'll need this API key in this application. There should be two URI's where part of it says YOUR_API_KEY, replace it with the one you generated.
