The Mission

The Hanzai Project, is a Full Stack MERN application that we decided on for our final project to display what we've learned throughout the bootcamp:

The purpose of this application is to report and alert others to crime in your area in hopes of providing awareness in your community. We would like our society to be safer and with the more crime tips reported the more points you earn. With enough points you'll become your community's #1 Samurai!

Running the app locally

The application expects a few environment variables to interact with the API:

• CDE_API - this should be the URL for the API. To use the public API, set this to https://api.usa.gov/crime/fbi/sapi
• API_KEY - this should match the key used by the API. If you are using the public API, sign up for an API key at https://api.data.gov/signup/

You can copy the env.sample file (cp env.sample .env), fill in your own values, and then make sure to source .env before running the build process.

Use npm run watch to start the continuous webpack processes and a webserver.

Running tests

You can lint the code with npm run lint and run tests with npm run test.
