This is the starter project for the final assessment project for Udacity's Redux course where you will build a content and comment web app. Users will be able to post content to predefined categories, comment on their posts and other users' posts, and vote on posts and comments. Users will also be able to edit and delete posts and comments.
This repository includes the code for the backend API Server that you'll use to develop and interact with the front-end portion of the project.
To get started developing right away:
- Install and start the API server
cd api-servernpm installnode server
- In another terminal window, install and start the pre-scaffolded Create React App project
cd frontendnpm installnpm start
Information about the API server and how to use it can be found in its README file.
To accesss the backend server in your code, we have stored the URL to the API server in the environment variable REACT_APP_BACKEND which you can access in your code using process.env.REACT_APP_BACKEND. You can see this in action in frontend/src/App.js in componentDidMount.
