It is the next-gen React Native rewrite of the original [Itchy Ionic](https://github.com/scratch-client-4/itchy-ionic) app created in 2021.  _This project is tested with BrowserStack. Thanks!_\n\n## Installation\n\nYou can install one of the CI-generated APK files from the [releases page](https://github.com/micahlt/itchy-native/releases) or you can install the app from the platforms' respective app stores below.\n\n[\u003cimg height=\"50\" width=\"180\" src=\"https://itchy.micahlindley.com/assets/google_play.svg\" /\u003e](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.scratchclient4.itchy)\n[\u003cimg height=\"50\" width=\"180\" src=\"https://itchy.micahlindley.com/assets/app_store.svg\" /\u003e](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/itchy-for-scratch/id6743445859)\n\n## Development\n\n\u003e [!WARNING]  \n\u003e We are undergoing an incremental migration from vanilla JavaScript over to [TypeScript](https://typescriptlang.org).\n\nYou can read more about Itchy's codebase in the [CONTRIBUTING.md](/docs/CONTRIBUTING.md).\n\n### Android\n\n1.

If are on Windows, due to path limits you should map the repository to a drive letter and work from there: `subst I: \"C:\\Users\\myuser\\repos\\itchy-native\"`\n4. In the `android` directory, create a new file called `key.properties`.  Inside of it, place information about your signing keystore in this format:\n\n```ini\nstorePassword=[keystore password]\nkeyPassword=[key password]\nkeyAlias=[key alias]\nstoreFile=[path to your keystore]\n```\n\n5. Prebuild the project with `npx expo prebuild`.\n6. Run `npm run android` to run the on an emulator or device.\n\n### iOS\n\n1. Clone the repository and run `npm install`.\n2. Set up your environment according to the [Expo iOS docs](https://docs.expo.dev/get-started/set-up-your-environment/?platform=ios\u0026device=simulated\u0026mode=development-build\u0026buildEnv=local).\n3. Install Ruby version 2.7.2 according to the [Ruby docs](https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/installation/#rbenv) if it's not already on your Mac.\n4. Install Cocoapods with `sudo gem install cocoapods` and resolve any errors that may occur.\n5. Prebuild the project with `npx expo prebuild`.\n6. Run `npx expo run:ios` to run the on the XCode simulator or your device.\n\n## Building\n\n### Android\n\n1. Go into the `android` directory with `cd android`.\n2. Run `./gradlew assembleRelease` for an APK output or `./gradlew bundleRelease` for an Android App Bundle output.\n\n### iOS through Xcode\n\n1. Run `./utils/rebuild-ios.sh` in the root directory.\n1. If you get a permission error, run `chmod +x utils/rebuild-ios.sh`.\n2. Open the `Itchy` target and select your personal development team in **Signing \u0026 Capabilities**.\n3. Go to `Product/Scheme/Edit Scheme` in the Menu Bar and set the **Build Configuration** to `Release`. Disable **Debug Executable** for better performance on first launch.\n4. Build the project.\n\n### iOS through CLI\n\n1. Run `npx expo run:ios --device --configuration Release` in the root directory.\n2. Choose your preferred Device/Simulator from the interactive menu.\n3. If prompted, choose what development team to use for signing.\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmicahlt%2Fitchy-native","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmicahlt%2Fitchy-native","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmicahlt%2Fitchy-native/lists"}
