Getting Started

Prerequisites

First, make sure you have Node.js  and Git  installed on your computer and have the Expo Go  app installed on your phone.

Repository Structure

For this project, branches will be split up into three categories: production, development, and features.

The production branch will hold code that has no errors and should always be a working version of the app. This branch will be updated less frequently and each commit will represent the equivalent of version updates of the app.

The development branch will be updated much more frequently. It holds all of the new updates after each feature branch has been completed and merged.

The feature branches will each be created to represent work on one issue. They should be focused on a specific issue, short-lived, and quickly merged back into the development branch after work on the issue is completed.

Cloning the Repository

First, navigate to our Github repository and find the green code button near the top right. Click on it and copy the link that appears in the dropdown.

Next, in your terminal/command prompt, navigate to the folder/location you would like your repository to be in.

Then clone your repository and enter the directory it creates:

$ git clone <paste your repository's address>
$ cd <the newly created directory>
