The application is deployed to Firebase and can be accessed through the following link: LinkedIn-clone
To run this application, you have to set your own firebase configurations. For security reasons, these configurations have been hidden from view and used as environmental variables with the help of dotenv file. You can simply create a new project in firebase by following the instructions provided by Firebase docs. After creating a project. you will recieve your configurations in the firebase console that you can use to initialize your application. Create a new .env file in the root folder of the application and keep the configurations keys there.
After initializing your application, you need to enable the Sign-in providers you want. We are using Email and password, and Google provider for authentication. You also need to create a new firestore database. All these steps are straight forward.
Now you can run "npm i" and "npm start" in the terminal and the application should work.
