Hello everyone ! My name is Maxence Potier, I have 22 years old and I am a studient at Holberton School Paris. This is the last project of my first year and I hope you will like it.
This project is a social network to help to find your gym partner. I have this idea because i go to the gym almost everyday but sometimes i don't have motivation and I would like to have someone to train with. I'm sure I'm not the only one in this case so I decided to develop a social network to answer this problem.
I decided to develop this project with a MERN Architecture. For more information on the developpement of the project I recommend you to write my article : link
For the installation you have to install all the needed packages :
Install all the back-end librairies : npm i
Install all the front-end libraires : cd client + npm i
Create a cluster with MongoDB Atlas and then configure the file ./config/db.js
Create a file .env in the folder config and config the variables :
- PORT =
Port for back-end - URL_CLIENT =
URL of your front-end - DB_USER_PASS =
user and password of db - TOKEN_KEY =
token key
Create a file .env in the folder client and config the variables :
- REACT_APP_API_URL =
URL of your API
Now you can run the server : npm start
And run the front : cd client + npm start
You can sign in or sign up :
