#botlist.json

This repo contains a native iOS app.

You're probably thinking "There's only two JSON files here and that's it, how can this possibly be a native app?"

Well, it's because it's powered by Jasonette, which enables native apps over HTTP, using JSON.

The gif you see below is an actual capture of the resulting app

It's fully native, and served directly from this repo over HTTP.

Check out the website to learn how it works.

##How botlist.json works

There are two JSON files here: index.json and detail.json. Each describes a view.

1. index.json: The home screen - Makes a network request to botlist.co website. - Parses the response into JSON. - Renders the result JSON markup into native components. - Transitions to detail.json when a user touches an item, passing the corresponding url as a parameter.

2. detail.json: The details screen (bot description) - Makes a network request to each bot detail page, using the parameter passed in from index.json. - Parses the response into JSON. - Renders the result JSON markup into native components.

##How to use

1. Download Jasonette.
2. Run Setup.
3. When asked for url, enter the raw JSON url for index.json.
