A react native SMS client based on Twilio. This uses Twilio numbers and APIs. Currently, this project is only tested on Android.
The cellphone plans are way too expensive where I live while tablet plans are more accessible. Using this application would allow sending text messages even when on a tablet plan. Also, this project would be great for travellers since it would eliminate many roaming issues.
This application could eventually have a web version in normal react to access your SMS on a computer.
I'm doing this project to learn React Native. So feel free to open PRs to improve the codebase.

- React Native

- Redux
- Redux-loop
- Flow (a little bit)
- Jest
Not using immutable.js. I don't use it since I think it would prevent me from doing my type definitions with flow. If I'm wrong or if you think it could help me to use it, please open an issue.
I chose redux-loop over others side effect management library because I like how I can write tests for it.
With the current version of ReactNative (0.44.0), we can't use Hot Reload with redux-loop.
You need to create yourself your Twilio account.
Currently, you also need to create a .env file containing your api's keys.
TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID=something
TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN=somethingelse
I was planning to do this project alone, but if you want to help I would love to work with you.
