Places I've Been

This application was built using React with Redux and a Rails API, available at https://github.com/jessicagomesng/places-ive-been-backend. This application enables wanderlusters to log the conuntries they've visited across Europe, as well as to add pins to log memories from places they've traveled to!

You can visit and see this application in action yourself by visiting: https://places-ive-been-heroku.herokuapp.com/

Getting Started

To get started, fork and clone this repo, as well as the backend repo. Then, in this respository, run:

npm install

to install any dependencies. Once installed, you can then run:

npm start

to start the server! If not automatic, then navigate to http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

Follow the instructions through the backend README to get the server set up.

From the application homepage, the user may:

• View and click on different countries on a world map to 'visit' them
• Drop pins at different locations on a map and save images from their Facebook/Instagram/other links to those pins to record memories to look back on later
• Edit and delete existing pins
