  2. A code editor such as VSCode to view and edit the code
Open Locally
  • Click on the link to my repository: My Repository
  • Click on the green "Code" button and copy the repository URL
  • Open your terminal and use the command git clone into the directory you would like to clone the repository
  • Open in text editor to view code and make changes

Getting Started with Create React App

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

Required Scripts

In the project directory, run:

npm install

Installs all dependancies for the project in order to run the application

npm start

Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.

Database and Deployment Requirements

To use database and deployment functionality, first create your personal atlas cluster at mongodb.com, a new app at heroku.com, and a new site for the project at netlify.com

  1. create a .env file in the main project directory
  2. use the .env.example as a guide and replace MONGO URL STRING HERE with your CONNECTION URL from MongoDB.
  3. after creating your new app in Heroku, login to Heroku in the console and use git to commit and add changes from the backend to the heroku remote.
  4. after running npm build in the client side directory of this project, find the newly created build directory and drag folder to the deployment section of your netlify application.

Available Scripts

npm test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.

npm run build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!

See the section about deployment for more information.

npm run eject

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!

If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.

Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.

You don’t have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
