# \*React Native Installation

**Note: If you already use CocoaPods, you can skip this step**

To always link to the most recent version, link to the RaxelPulse iOS framework with CocoaPods rather than downloading the framework itself.

* Navigate to your project folder in a terminal window.
* Make sure you have the [CocoaPods](https://cocoapods.org/?fbclid=IwAR0xys62erg3Z7E6T6HnQThCcoPHfMB4K5PW44aeORo1ja6u3jh4h0zMiEY) gem installed on your machine before installing the Raxel Pulse pod

This will create a file named "Podfile" in your project's root directory.

```
$ sudo gem install cocoapods$ pod init
```

* Add the following to your Podfile:

```
pod 'RaxelPulse'
```

* Run the following command in your project root directory from a terminal window:

```
$ pod install
```
