Radio Map

Radio map is a clone of radio.garden, hosted on AWS and built on a MERN stack. Test it out here.

Features

• Browse radio stations throughout the world
• Listen to internet radio
• See most popular stations in different areas

Running the repo locally

To run the project locally, run the following:

git clone https://github.com/andersan/radio-map.git

Start the express server in one terminal:

cd backend
yarn install
yarn run dev

Start the frontend in another terminal:

cd frontend
yarn install
yarn run dev

For debugging the backend, use npm run dev >> logfile.log. Anything crashing the backend is likely caused by an uncaught API issue.

Note that the frontend project requires a .env.local file with the following variables assigned:

• NEXT_PUBLIC_ENVRIONMENT: set this to "development" for running locally
• NEXT_PUBLIC_CESIUM_ACCESS_TOKEN: api token for cesium Ion access (maps/images)

Planned future features

• Search functionality
• Basic user functionality (save a list of fave stations)
• Manage states with Redux, allowing for an easy back button in menu navigation
• Browse using alternative station list from Radio browser API
• Radio station list view (also using Radio browser API)
• Allow users to submit corrections and new stations
• Video streaming map
• Allow running front and back end with one command (use concurrently)
