A voting app project for FreeCodeCamp

View it at: https://arcane-atoll-78026.herokuapp.com/

Keep in mind this is just an educational project - one that was rushed a little bit so I didn't bother with the design much or to make it perfect.

Some of the tech used:

• Back-End: NodeJS, Express, MongoDB
• Front-End: React, Redux

Running on local server

1. Have Node installed and clone the repo

2. in your console run npm start or npm start-watch for live reloading with Nodemon.

3. Make a dev.js file in the config folder for secret keys. It looks like this:

// development keys - dont commit this file!

module.exports = {
  github: {
    clientID: 'yourClientID',
    clientSecret: 'yourSecret'
  },

  mongoURI: 'mongodb://localhost:27017/VotingApp',
  
  cookieKey: 'someSecretStringForCookies'
}

npm Commands

start - starts the server

start-watch - starts the server with nodemon ( live reload )

test - runs tests

test-watch - tests with reloading

client - start the client

dev - start the client and the server using concurrently

lt - start a localtunnel server
