Pokedex: Redux Saga example in React Native

This repo demonstrates a basic working example of redux-sagas using a Pokedex mini-game as means to show the advantages.

In the app you'll find 3 tab views:

• an example using redux, without redux sagas
• an example using redux, with redux sagas
• a simple list of the pokemon you've caught

In the git history you'll find 4 commits:

• feat: adds working capture pokemon game using basic react
  • demonstrates a tradition redux approach to building system logic in React Native
• feat: adds redux saga for encountering & capturing pokemon
  • demonstrates how to build the exact same logic, but using redux sagas
• test: adds unit test for redux saga
  • demonstrates how we can unit test redux sagas
• doc: adds README to project

Part of the power of redux-sagas is the testability - an example unit test using the redux-saga-test-plan library here:

features/pokemon/pokemonSaga.test.ts

You can run tests using:

yarn run test
