Budgit 💸

Budgit is a simple budgeting app built on React Native that I hacked over the summer of 2020 during shelter-in-place.

Designed for college students navigating the realm of financial responsibility, a struggle that I had to overcome when I started living off-campus. It helps you maintain and track your spending habits by month.

Check out our demo!

Installing the project

Before running the project, make sure you have React Native installed:

$ npm install -g react-native

Once you have that done, just clone the repository into your chosen directory:

$ git clone https://github.com/bjma/budgit

Then, in the project directory, install npm dependencies:

$ npm install

And install other dependencies in the ios directory:

$ gem install cocoapods
$ pod install

After that, you can just run react-native run-ios in the project directory to view the project on XCode's iOS simulator.

NOTE: There may be some issues with cocoapods and the XCode project files. To solve, just delete the build folder in ios and run pod install again (this might take a while).
