🚫 Standard Compliant

This project adheres to Standard. Our CI enforces this, so we suggest you enable linting to keep your project compliant during development.

This project uses react-native-config to expose config variables to your javascript code in React Native. You can store API keys and other sensitive information in a .env file:

API_URL=https://myapi.com
GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY=abcdefgh

and access them from React Native like so:

import Secrets from 'react-native-config'

Secrets.API_URL  // 'https://myapi.com'
Secrets.GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY  // 'abcdefgh'

The .env file is ignored by git keeping those secrets out of your repo.
