I’m using the react native boiler plate by Spencer Carli. https://github.com/spencercarli/react-native-meteor-boilerplate
I have two questions.
1)
My main question is how do I return data from a meteor collection into my app?
I’m attempting to change: Line 67
Goal:
instead of getting the total count of posts, I would like to return the title of the post.
When I try and point to a title, all I get is a bunch of random ID’s instead of an object.
eg)

My second question is regarding to the need to install ddpClient from npm. Why did I not need to install ddpClient when dealing with login from meteor accounts, but I did when using collections?
import Meteor, { Accounts } from 'react-native-meteor';
Is this where the Accounts DDP login resides?
Thank you for any and all responses.
