Remove React from Pod install or update docs
See original GitHub issueThis is related to https://github.com/oblador/react-native-vector-icons/issues/59 and exacerbated by https://github.com/oblador/react-native-vector-icons/issues/302.
Looking for an easy way to install icon fonts I decided to try the CocoaPods approach documented in the README
, which borks the iOS build because it installs a second version of React:
Installing RNVectorIcons (2.1.0)
Installing React (0.11.0)
There’s nothing in the documentation stating the CocoaPods installation will cause potential conflict with existing project dependencies, so I’d suggest either removing React from the Pod, if possible, or updating the documentation so users don’t hit #59 after installation.
Better yet, considering the Pareto principle, it may be better to remove the CocoaPods installation instructions entirely from the README
.

Hey everybody,
I’ve investigated the installation of React Native dependencies a little more in-depth; and I’ve come to a quite clean cocoapod-based solution (I hope). I’ve summed up the approach in a blog post at https://sandstorm.de/de/blog/post/react-native-managing-native-dependencies-using-xcode-and-cocoapods.html .
Maybe it helps somebody 😃
All the best, Sebastian
