Pre-requisites

1. A Mac with XCode and XCode command line tools installed
2. Install npm to install JS dependencies (https://nodejs.org/en/ or brew install node - may already be installed)
3. Install Cocoapods to install native dependencies (https://guides.cocoapods.org/using/getting-started.html - sudo gem install cocoapods should work on most systems)
4. Install react-native-cli globally with npm install -g react-native-cli

Setup

1. cd into the ReactNative subdirectory of the project
2. run npm install to install the JS dependencies (i.e. React Native itself)
3. Open JuceRNExample.jucer in Projucer and press Cmd-S to export for XCode (we don't want to open the project yet)
4. cd .. back to the top level and run pod install to install the native depdencies into the XCode workspace
5. Open Builds/iOS/JuceRNExample.xcworkspace (not .xcodeproj) in XCode

Note: if you make any changes to the Projucer project, you need to export and then run pod install again, otherwise the Cocoapods specific settings will be lost

Running the project (development mode)

1. From the ReactNative subdirectory, run react-native start to start the development server
2. Ensure the Debug build configuration is selected in XCode's Product > Scheme > Edit Scheme dialog
3. Run the project from Xcode.

Note: if you are running on a real device rather than the simulator, you'll need to update 127.0.0.1 in BridgeDelegate.mm to your computer's wifi LAN address so that the device can load from the computer over the wifi network.
