Astrale is an astrology mobile application made with React Native. Uses Expo as a toolchain and Paper for styling and theming.

It also supports multiple languages thanks to i18n, by default comes with texts in both English and Spanish.

🤖 Behind the scenes

(Deprecated, now all the data is local)

A good astrology application needs new data for each day and for each sign soooo.... Python scraper to save the day:

• Data: Comes from a scraper programmed with Python that each day at midnight goes to astrology pages in spanish and english for the data.
• Persistence: The data that python extracts is stored in MongoDB.
• Api: A PHP rest API layer with an API REST that dispatches the data to the application.
• The boss: All of this (deploys, tests, scraping) is possible thanks to a custom Jenkins.
