Steps to reproduce

1. Add a Podfile in React Native project:

platform :ios, '9.0'
use_frameworks!

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
source 'https://github.com/twilio/cocoapod-specs'

target 'MedChat' do
  pod 'Yoga', path: '../node_modules/react-native/ReactCommon/yoga/Yoga.podspec'

  pod 'React', :path => '../node_modules/react-native'

  pod 'react-native-twilio-video-webrtc', path: '../node_modules/react-native-twilio-video-webrtc'

  pod 'RCTTwilioChat', :path => '../node_modules/react-native-twilio-chat/ios'
  pod 'TwilioChatClient', '~> 0.16.0'
  pod 'TwilioAccessManager', '~> 0.1.1'
end

1. pod install
2. react-native run-ios

I’m at a loss for words. Removed the library from the project, things started working, added it again by doing no different steps than before, and it worked. App built and ran correctly. Thanks for the library, I guess 😄

Understood. This is my first react native project so I am not sure I fully understand what react-native link is. Have tried the Example in your repo - it worked. But my new app doesn’t. Thus my questions )

Haven’t updated the library to the latest version yet, but yes you can just add .xcodeproj file and it should fall to your libraries section. And the *.a file can be added in ‘General’ tab under ‘Linked Frameworks and Libraries’. To be fair, this should be automated with react-native link, but we’ll have to do with what we have
