📱 Mobile App Development Installation Guide

💻 Everything Needed for React Native Mobile App Development on a New MacBook



⚙️ Scripts

  1. Install HomeBrew (when finished installing, copy the two lines of code in your terminal and run them to add HomeBrew initialization scripts to your shell)
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
  1. Use HomeBrew to Install Stuff
brew tap wix/brew; 
brew install git yarn watchman openjdk applesimutils cocoapods ios-deploy expo-orbit pyenv wget asura-cli postgresql tesseract;
brew tap heroku/brew && brew install heroku
brew install --cask google-chrome; // web browser
brew install --cask visual-studio-code; // code editor
brew install --cask android-studio; // official android software
brew install --cask react-native-debugger reactotron; // optional react native toolkits
brew install --cask surfshark; // my preferred vpn provider
brew install --cask kap; // open-sourced screen video recording software
brew install --cask whatsapp; // communications
brew install --cask slack; // communications
brew install --cask docker; // if you plan to develop with any docker containers/images
brew install --cask zoom; // will require your sudo auth machine login credentials
brew install --cask rectangle; // window organizer
brew install --cask steam; // gaming
  1. Setup nvm (brew install, and then make sure to add the shell initialization scripts by running the commands that are provided by your terminal upon successful brew install)
brew install nvm
  1. Install oh-my-zsh
sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)"
  1. Add Lines to Your ./.zshrc File
echo -e "\n\n\"$(brew --prefix asdf)/libexec/asdf.sh\"\n\n\"$(brew --prefix asdf)/etc/bash_completion.d/asdf.bash\" \n\neval "$(/opt/homebrew/bin/brew shellenv)" \n\nsource ~/.nvm/nvm.sh" >> ~/.zshrc;
echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/openjdk/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
  1. Use npm to Globally Install Some SDK's
npm install -g react-native-cli @react-native-community/cli expo-cli eas-cli lint-staged create-expo-app ignite-cli@latest detox-cli
  1. Login to Expo
expo login


⚙️ Manual Steps

  1. Create your SSH key by individually running the following commands and your replacing your first/last name and email address for use with Github/GitLab/Bitbucket:

git config --global user.name "FirstName LastName"


git config --global user.email "[email protected]"


ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "[email protected]"


  1. Add your newly-created SSH key to GitHub/GitLab/BitBucket by copying the new key to your clipboard with pbcopy < ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub, and then paste the key's value into GitHub/GitLab/BitBucket SSH key settings.
  2. Open VSCode and add code to path by pressing command-shift-p, searching for "install code", and select the Shell Command: Install 'code' command in PATH option
  3. Uninstall VSCode Extensions so you can install the newest versions in the next step.

  1. Downloads from MacBook App Store:
    • XCode
    • Transporter
    • The Unarchiver
    • iMovie
    • Paint S


⚙️ XCode Setup

Next make sure XCode from the MacBook App Store is installed and up to date. You may also want to ensure that your MacBook's operating system is up-to-date before installing/updating XCode. Upon installing XCode, there some additional setup required so that React Native can interact with the XCode command line interface toolkit:

  1. Launch XCode
  2. Go to Xcode | Settings in the menu bar
  3. Go to Locations in the preferences window
  4. Click the drop down next to Command Line Tools and select the version of Xcode you are currently using. There is most likely a set of Command Line Tools already selected, but you should re-select the same selection to ensure that it properly engages.


⚙️ Android Studio Setup

  • After installing Android Studio using HomeBrew above, there's some additional setup required:
  1. Open Android Studio, and on the main home screen, click More Actions dropdown and select SDK Manager
  2. Check the box next to Android SDK Command-line Tools (latest)
  3. Finally, click Apply and then Ok, accept license agreements as needed After installing everything in the above steps, then make sure the following environment variables are in your ~/.zshrc file (or ~/.bashrc file if you use bash) — but it's important that you replace "yourUsername" below with your actual laptop's username:
export ANDROID_SDK=/Users/yourUsername/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=/Users/yourUsername/Library/Android/sdk
export ANDROID_HOME=/Users/yourUsername/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/emulator
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/tools/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_HOME/platform-tools
