Serenity-Now - An app to manage memorable vacations and time off work

This project showcases all I've learnt in React-Native. By using the guidance of a few videos I've watched and docs, articles I've read, I built this app, with slick animations and a slick UI with buttery smooth animations.

Technologies used

• React Native (Expo) - The base framework for building the app, using the Expo CLI and Metro Bundler.
• Redux Toolkit - A library for managing state in React Native throughout the application, which is much easier to use than the built-in React Native state management and Native Redux.
• GraphQL using the Apollo Client - A GraphQL client for React Native, which is used to fetch data from the Contentful CMS.
• React Navigation - To manage the various screens and tabs in the app.
• Contentful CMS - Content Management System - To store and manage the data for the app.
• Async Storage - For persisting data across sessions.
• Firebase for Authentication - To authenticate the user
• Lottie Animations using the AirBnb React Native Lottie library - To create the slick and fun animations for the app.
• Styled Components - To style React Native components, using SCSS.
• Random User API - To generate random users for the app.
