I'm really new with React-Native and I'm not a front-end developer. That's why I don't know if it's possible to do what I'm asking.
I saw some apps, like Wikitude or NearestWiki, which have like pop ups in the camera while pointing with the camera to something.
I find it pretty amazing. I'm just wondering if it would be possible to make something like that with React-Native, but instead of giving the pop-up direct from backend, permitting that the user could "post" something and that other people that are near can see it with the camera. I mean, the user touch the screen, and can write something and when the post is saved, other people with the same app, can see the post of the first user in that place.
It would be quite funny. But I don't know if that's possible. And if that's possible, I would like to know, how.
Maybe someone knows a library or module that permits something like that. Or maybe someone can tell me how could I search for it, or give me some advice how could I start to write it.
I already solved the geolocation problem, that an user could open his camera, etc... but it remains the core, that the user could touch the screen and add a post, and then show it to other users.
I would be pretty glad if someone can at least tell me where to search.
From my experience of React Native so far I would have avoided it, but it seems there's a few others that think along the same lines. There's a similar question here that has some useful info, though it's a little out of date. A quick google search for "augmented reality react native" will bring up a few handy pages like this one.
Hope that helps, please let me know if you find anything that works!

It's late and my brain can't even think of the proper things to search for to find the help I need.
Here's what I'm aiming for:
My app takes in a bunch of data from the user. Specifically sizes for windows and doors around a house. My app takes all that data and determines how much material is required, etc.
Here's where I'm stuck:
What I'd like to do is turn that all into a fancy looking report and offer the user the ability to print it. I figured the easiest way to do that would be to generate a report using HTML (or PDF) and have it open up in a web browser, which already has print capabilities.
Can anyone tell me if this seems like a good strategy for what I'm trying accomplish? And if so, point me in the right direction (or to the exact same questions that's already been answered somewhere on this forum).
Thanks.
I'm using Ionic, NGCordova ( http://ngcordova.com/docs/#Capture ) and the Capture plugin, trying to start a new hybrid app. I figured out how to use it to capture a photo, a video, a sound... But I have requirements a bit more complicated in my project.
I would like to be able to switch from photo to video and back inside of the camera view. Here is an example of what I would want to do, from the Wedpics app :
As you can see, on the bottom, there is the possibility to change from pic to vid and back. Also, there is the possibility to choose a pic from the gallery - which is good but no mandatory.
Now, is this possible to do with Capture plugin ? If not, is there another plugin that gives better capabilities ? Or, if there is not, would someone be able to tell me if it's at least doable with a hybrid app ? If yes, I could simply try and make my own plugin for iOS and Android...
Thank you very much ahead !
[EDIT] Okay, there is absolutely no plugin that gives this, surprisingly. It surprises me enough for me to ask, really, if someone that already worked on that type of things could answer this : is it possible to make ? I mean, there could be a problem regarding the returned data, with no way to detect what was returned or something like this, and that would be why no one did it...
If someone can confirm me it's doable, I might give it a try, or look for a freelancer to do it for me !
Thanks again !
I know this has been asked before (did not find a straight forward answer) but can I (Or how can I) create and Android App using CSS/HTML/Jquery ?
I will not need to hook into native functions, such as the accelerometer, camera, or even the Toast Messages...I only need to create an app to show a list of names and some details when name is selected, therefore I don't know if it's worth learning to make my life more complicated for something like this.
PS: I need the app to work offline, otherwise I would have just made it with jQuery Mobile and uploaded it on a server.
UPDATE AFTER GETTING DOWNVOTED
Ok, so I get downvotes for this question, probably because it's been asked before, or maybe not, since he/she didn't take the time to write a reason...
Anyway, my point is: I did googled it and searched, but at this moment there are a lot of ads of websites and web apps that will help you do this BUT are they reliable, safe..do they really do the trick or it comes with bugs? That is why I asked the question, to see who used what and what was their experience with it. So yeah, you can downvote me for not trusting every ad and not taking the time to try out everything out there!
Well you can use https://software.intel.com/en-us/html5/tools to develop cross-platform apps. I used it to develop too. It is quite good but it only has one major issue: you can't use php. It also enables you to do on-device testing.
I have recently been asked to help put together an Android App, mostly UI for myself.
Knowing nothing about it and even less about Java, I stumbled upon Appcelerator.
I got it all installed, and fought my way through getting the Kitchen Sink app to work, but that's not what I am looking for. So I am hoping some here might know or be experienced with this.
First off, is Appcelerator as good as it appears to me at first glance?
Second, my main task here would be that each time someone places a call, I would like to check the number being dialed and, if it falls under specific circumstances, throw up a modal dialog box with options for the user to select.
Is this something doable in Appcelerator or am I fishing in the wrong pond?
Any info/advice is appreciated.

Here is my answer when somebody asked that yesterday.

It is not doable in Appcelerator, except perhaps by writing your own Java-based plugin. Even with that I am skeptical -- most of these sort of cross-platform toolkits (e.g., Titanium, PhoneGap) are designed for apps where the UI is point of control, not system-level events like phone calls.
I want to know how to control system resources and services like bluetooth, SMS, phone contacts etc.
Honestly, i want to know how or what to do to control sms usage based on user behavior, block incoming call or change it to auto vibrate mode without user noticed like that.
Actually, I want it for my assignment about context aware access control paper.
I choose Android for implementation but i am afraid i
couldn't submit my paper in time if i study android from the beginning and all by myself.
No offense but I want to avoid errors.
I feel my head becomes swollen whenever "force close error" show as I need it urgent.
