Clone GitHub Project

Introduction#

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for cloning and running our pre-configured React Native sample project, which includes the IMG.LY editor integration.

Note: Customizing the CreativeEditor SDK for React Native is handled exclusively through native code (Swift/Kotlin), as outlined in our configuration overview section.

Pre-requisites#

Before you begin, make sure the following requirements are met:

  • A properly configured Expo development environment
  • Platform-specific development setup for your target (Android and/or iOS)
  • Git CLI installed
  • A valid CE.SDK license key (Get a free trial)

1. Clone the GitHub Repository#

First, open your terminal application and navigate to your preferred working directory - for example, the ~/Downloads directory.

Terminal window
cd ~/Downloads

Next, clone the repository of our official React Native sample application:

Terminal window
git clone https://github.com/imgly/cesdk-react-native-examples.git

2. Run the Project#

Before running the application, ensure you add your valid IMG.LY license key to the src/secrets/secrets.ts file.

static license = {YOUR_LICENSE_KEY}

Finally, run the project on your target platform (Android and/or iOS).

Terminal window
npx expo start

Next Steps#

  • Include the @imgly/editor-react-native native module in your existing React Native project
  • Use our native interfaces to customize the editor to your liking
