##Grey Matter An app to help improve quality of life for people living with memory impairment such as dementia or Alzheimer's disease
There are 2 parts to the application, the server and the client application. Both require Node JS to be installed in order to be run on localhost.
Projects:
Server - bn3ypbackend App - new_current
You can install npm from the official site: https://nodejs.org/en/
The client application is a cross-platform hybrid applicatoin made using Angular JS, Cordova and the Ionic Mobile framework.
For both projects, to install depenendencies simply open a command line in the directory of each project respectively and type the command:
'npm install'
This will download, configure and install all project dependencies.
To run the client app, ensure you have a copy of the server running first (this is live, but you can use localhost for better understanding and intercepting packets or debugging etc):
node server.js
Should start the server side project (bn3ypbackend)
Now the server can be accessed via localhost
To start that app:
Navigate to it's project folder, run command npm install
You may also need to install the ionic cli via
npm install -g ionic
Then simply run ionic serve -l to see the app running in a browser
Or if on a Mac, you can simulate the app using the iOS simulator via:
ionic simulate ios
3rd party plugins used:
background geolocation plugin - https://github.com/transistorsoft/cordova-background-geolocation-lt
timepicker - https://github.com/rajeshwarpatlolla/ionic-timepicker
auth0 social login authentication - https://auth0.com/
Others have been used, but are a part of the Ionic frameworks dependencies so I will not state them explicitly (just see Ionic's documentation)
A guide to setting up Ionic can be found here: http://ionicframework.com/docs/guide/installation.html
