Public Wifi Entries

An application used to record wifi speeds at public locations. Built with React on the front end and Firebase for the database, authentication, and hosting.

Local Development

In the root project directory, install all the project dependencies:

yarn install

Next, you will need to rename the .env.example file to .env to have access to the required environment variables. The environment variables allow the application to work with Firebase as well as use the Google Places API.

Once that is complete, start the development server:

yarn start

The application should now be running on http://localhost:3000/.

Deployment

To deploy the application, first run the build command in the root project directory:

yarn build

Then, deploy the application to firebase:

firebase deploy

Note: you need the production API values in your .env file to properly deploy the application to firebase

The live app should be available at https://publicwifispeeds.firebaseapp.com/.
