What is Quest

  • Quest is a question/answer webapp where users ask questions, and other users answer those questions, both questions and answers have an upvote system, where users can upvote/downvote a question or a comment

Why should you use Quest ?

  • Offer a community feedback for your product (like battlelog for the game battlefied 3 game, or steam forums for steam) ...

  • Use it as a ticket system for you client, such that they can ask questions, or report issues (like github issues)

  • Use it as a question/answer platform, like google answers or yahoo answers

How to use Quest

Quest requires both backend and frontend to run, you can find the instructions to get both ends running here:

Contribute

We accept contributes from the community, specially new developer, just make sure to use eslint and follow github workflow

Backend

  • Restful API
  • All basic crud endpoints with partial updates for question and user models
  • User auth using jwt tokens and cookies

Frontend

  • User: Register, Login, Logout
  • Question: Create, Read, Edit, Delete, Share, Upvote, Downvote
  • Comment: Create, Read, Delete, Upvote, Downvote (other features will be implemented in the future)

Try it

First clone the project git clone https://github.com/Fibii/QA.git then create a .env file in the backend with the following properties (specifically in QA/backend, if you use unix touch QA/backend should create it in the correct path)

DB=LINK_TO_DB (something like mongodb://db:port/qaTEST, qaTEST is the name of the db)
SECRET='SECRET'
API=LINK_TO_API_ENDPOINT (should be something like http://localhost:3001/api/)

go to backend dir cd QA/backend then npm install to install the dependencies required for the backend

go to frontend dir cd QA/frontend then npm install to install the dependencies required for the frontend

start the backend server nodejs QA/backend/index.js
