+> **Note**: Make sure you have completed the [React Native - Environment Setup](https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup) instructions till "Creating a new application" step, before proceeding.
-## Step 1: Start the Metro Server
+## NodeJS and Ruby
-First, you will need to start **Metro**, the JavaScript _bundler_ that ships _with_ React Native.
+To run the project you need to install the correct version of NodeJS and Ruby.
+We recommend the use of a virtual environment of your choice. For ease of use, this guide adopts [nodenv](https://github.com/nodenv/nodenv) for NodeJS, [rbenv](https://github.com/rbenv/rbenv) for Ruby.
-To start Metro, run the following command from the _root_ of your React Native project:
+The node version used in this project is stored in [.node-version](.node-version),
+while the version of Ruby is stored in [.ruby-version](.ruby-version).
+
+## Build the app
```bash
-# using npm
-npm start
+# Install NodeJS with nodenv, the returned version should match the one in the .node-version file
+$ nodenv install && nodenv version
-# OR using Yarn
-yarn start
-```
+# Install Ruby with rbenv, the returned version should match the one in the .ruby-version file
+$ rbenv install && rbenv version
-## Step 2: Start your Application
+# Install yarn and rehash to install shims
+$ npm install -g yarn && nodenv rehash
-Let Metro Bundler run in its _own_ terminal. Open a _new_ terminal from the _root_ of your React Native project. Run the following command to start your _Android_ or _iOS_ app:
+# Install bundle
+$ gem install bundle
-### For Android
+# Install the required Gems from the Gemfile
+# Run this only during the first setup and when Gems dependencies change
+$ bundle install
-```bash
-# using npm
-npm run android
+# Install dependencies
+# Run this only during the first setup and when JS dependencies change
+$ yarn install
-# OR using Yarn
-yarn android
+# Install podfiles when targeting iOS (ignore this step for Android)
+# Run this only during the first setup and when Pods dependencies change
+$ cd ios && bundle exec pod install && cd ..
```
-### For iOS
+## Run the app
```bash
-# using npm
-npm run ios
+# Android
+$ yarn android
-# OR using Yarn
-yarn ios
+# iOS
+$ yarn ios
```
-
-If everything is set up _correctly_, you should see your new app running in your _Android Emulator_ or _iOS Simulator_ shortly provided you have set up your emulator/simulator correctly.
-
-This is one way to run your app — you can also run it directly from within Android Studio and Xcode respectively.
-
-## Step 3: Modifying your App
-
-Now that you have successfully run the app, let's modify it.
-
-1. Open `App.tsx` in your text editor of choice and edit some lines.
-2. For **Android**: Press the R key twice or select **"Reload"** from the **Developer Menu** (Ctrl + M (on Window and Linux) or Cmd ⌘ + M (on macOS)) to see your changes!
-
- For **iOS**: Hit Cmd ⌘ + R in your iOS Simulator to reload the app and see your changes!
-
-## Congratulations! :tada:
-
-You've successfully run and modified your React Native App. :partying_face:
