Introduction

StudyCrew is a dedicated online platform designed to foster accessible, collaborative, and engaging educational experiences. We're committed to making learning more inclusive and interactive. If you have any questions or inquiries, feel free to reach out to us at development@studycrew.world.

Getting Started

To begin, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/studycrew/studycrew

Setting up MongoDB

StudyCrew uses MongoDB as its primary data storage. Ensure you have a local instance or a free MongoDB Atlas subscription. Set your connection string in the .env.example file:

MONGODB_URL=[YOUR CONNECTION STRING HERE]

Setting up Authentication with Clerk

For authentication, StudyCrew utilizes Clerk. To set up your local instance, you'll need a Clerk account. Once you've created an account, obtain your credentials and place them in the env.local file:

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY=[YOUR PUBLISHABLE KEY FROM CLERK]
CLERK_SECRET_KEY=[YOUR SECRET KEY FROM CLERK]

Sentry Exception Handling

If you would like to handle exceptions like we do, just create a free Sentry.io account and replace the dsn key with your own in all of the following files:

• sentry.client.config.ts
• sentry.edge.config.ts
• sentry.server.config.ts

Here is an example:

import * as Sentry from '@sentry/nextjs'

Sentry.init({
    dsn: '[YOUR DSN HERE]',
    tracesSampleRate: 1,
    debug: false
})

Running the Project Locally

To run the project locally, you need to:

1. pnpm i the required dependencies.

2. pnpm dev to launch the development server.
