## Installation
### Prerequisites
- Node.js and npm
- MySQL database
- React Native environment ([setup guide](https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup))
### Steps
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/dincertekin/mblog.git
```
2. Install dependencies for both client and server:
```bash
cd mblog/client && npm install
cd ../server && npm install
```
3. Configure your MySQL connection in `server/app.js`:
```js
host: 'your_mysql_host',
user: 'your_mysql_user',
password: 'your_mysql_password',
database: 'your_database_name'
```
## Usage
Start the server first, then the client:
```bash
cd mblog/server && npm run start
cd mblog/client && npm run start
```
Open the app on your device or emulator to start creating and reading posts.
## Troubleshooting
Make sure your MySQL database is running before starting the server, otherwise the connection will fail.
