Tutorial #4: Mini-app to outer app communication

This post is the 4th one in a series of posts on Electrode Native.

It assumes that one has already completed the steps in Tutorial #3 here - https://gist.github.com/hemanth-manoharan/5460456f019faae2678776427f879bac

In this tutorial, we are going to demonstrate how to communicate between the JS code in the mini-app and the native code in the outer app. We will be using the concept of Electrode Native APIs for the same.

Tutorial #1: How to create a mini app in Electrode Native and embed it within an outer Android native app

This is the first in a series of posts around Electrode Native.

Was not able to directly find a "hello world" type of guide that demonstrates all the capabilities of Electrode Native - like mini-app packaging and OTA (Over-The-Air updates) in the documentation here - https://www.electrode.io/site/docs/getting_started.html

Hence, decided to write one as part of my journey. These posts are more focused on getting the code running than on explanation of the underlying concepts. For details on the concepts, please refer to the Electrode Native documentation directly.

Note: Electrode Native version at the time of writing this tutorial - v0.45.5
