Update: The frontpage now has a line that says "Get SimpleX desktop app", above various mobile app stores links. Have to head to downloads page, still on the website itself, for desktop, mobile and terminal options.
Hello, I just came across this post while searching on lemmy, I hope you don't mind my late comment on this post, so I can contribute to Lemmy. I have read your post multiple times, but if it's not the answer you're looking for, then I apologise in advance.
Messed up node modules, because I used npm and yarn
Delete node modules and do npm i or npm ci or yarn add.
Order
I usually do venv first, then I do Django backend, then React Native Expo frontend. However, the order itself isn't that important, because the frontend and backend folders are separated. Doing backend then frontend is just more convenient since API is used.
For example, you deploy Django first then you compile Expo and you will see your API fetches. If you decide to do Expo first then Django it is still fine, just when you open your Expo app, you won't see your API stuff from Django until you deploy Django.
A heads up that it's a separate story if you use Docker, which I think you aren't, since Docker is not mentioned.
Path
- I use .env file for React Native
REACT_APP_API_URL = 'http://127.0.0.1:8000'
- I use relative paths (src, import) in Django and React Native
'./relative-folder/relative-photo.jpg'
- I use dynamic path in Django
os.path.join
It is generally advised not to use hardcoded paths, try to avoid if possible because whilst it works when you are developing locally, using hardcoded paths may not work during deployment. For Expo using hardcoded paths should still work.
Heh? I just bought 750g spaghetti at RM4.90 ($1.06) in Malaysia.
