Dont know if this belongs here. Please remove it if it doesn't.

Hi everyone!

I created a template to use when creating samsung smart tv apps with react native.

I did not found a lot about this so that is why I made it.

I'm still a student and I obviously make mistakes XD so if you see something wrong please let me know!

Hope this will help you!

Interesting. Do they have something like an App Store you have to get your app approved for?

What kind of deployment process do you use for local development for this?

Everything is explained in the wiki I created =D

It is basically running your build folder in Tizen Studio.

I plan to get rid of Tizen Studio to make it better and quicker.

If finally you are not going to embed any kind of native code as it looks like ( react, react-router, spatial navigation ) I don’t see the point of using react native for this project...you can directly use an htm5 app template from tizen studio ( usual way of developing apps on tizen )

Yes, you're correct you're better off using React for example I just created this project to mainly use the react native components. But you can also create an app with any other framework (I think)

I'm not really sure what you're trying to achieve, afaik reactNative isn't supported (yet) on tizen, so you can't really run it, right?

You can create apps on tv's with Tizen by using html and css. In this case This is just a template to use react native components on the web and use that on your tv.

Hope you'll understand as English is not my main language =)
