The application for flexible time management

Presentation | Demo

---

Based on heroku-cra-node

Local Development

Clone repository (git clone https://github.com/applaura/web.git)

Start MongoDB (install and run MongoDB)

Run the API Server

In a terminal:

# Initial setup
yarn install

# Start the server
yarn start
yarn develop (start with nodemon)

Run the React UI

The React app is configured to proxy backend requests to the local Node server. (See "proxy" config)

In a separate terminal from the API server, start the UI:

# Always change directory, first
cd react-ui/

# Initial setup
yarn install

# Start the server
yarn start

Test

In a separate terminal from the API server and react UI:

# Run all tests
yarn test

# Run only server tests
yarn test server

# Run only react UI tests
cd react-ui/
yarn test

Deploy

You can use a button or make it manually

git clone https://github.com/applaura/web.git
cd web/
heroku create
git push heroku master

This deployment will automatically:

• detect Node buildpack
• build the app with
  • npm install for the Node server
  • heroku-postbuild for create-react-app
• launch the web process with npm start
  • serves ../react-ui/build/ as static files
  • customize by adding API, proxy, or route handlers/redirectors
