Set up the API and mobile app separately. Install dependencies with npm install in both api/ and mobile-app/ directories, configure environment variables (MONGODB_URI, JWT_SECRET, EXPO_PUBLIC_API_URL), then start the API server with npm run dev and the mobile app with npm start. Use Expo CLI and a simulator or physical device to run the app.
Todo App
A comprehensive todo application with a React Native mobile app and a Node.js/Express backend API. This
file was built using Cursor and the Box MCP server. No code was manually written.
In Cursor, we searched Box for the Product Requirements Document (PRD) and for Coding Standards, and asked
Cursor to build the app decribed in the PRD being sure to follow the coding standards. To see the documents
we used in Box, check out the /sample-docs directory.
In order to prevent cheating the PRD or guidelines to make the build easier, I used the following
publicly available examples:
PRD from Damian Filiatrault at ScalablePath.
