Inroduction

This template has been created for the Angular Connect Hackathon, hosted by Progress Software.

Be sure to check the announcement, rules and prices at ac-nativescript-hackathon.devpost.com.

Getting started

Once you go through the quick setup of NativeScript, the template should get you started with a sample app using Soundcloud's API:

Scaffolding

First launch the app generator, pointing to this template

tns create my-soundcloud-app --template https://github.com/Appverse/nativescript-template-soundcloud

And then Launch the setup script (it will just move some files around)

cd my-soundcloud-app
node app/setup.js

API setup

  • Signup to the awesome Soundcloud Service
  • After registering, create your app in the dashboard and you should now have a Client Id available.
  • Edit app/secrets.json and replace placeholders with that Client Id.
  • Run tns emulate ios and/or tns emulate android to make sure everything is in place and working
  • Start hacking!

Helpers

You should check Soundcloud's guide to learn more about the API.
