Usage (run fullstack app on your machine)

Prerequirements

Node ^10.0.0
npm

notice, you need client and server runs concurrently in different terminal session, in order to make them talk to each other

Client-side usage(PORT: 3000)

$ cd client   // go to client folder
$ npm i       // npm install pacakges
$ npm run dev // run it locally

// deployment for client app
$ npm run build // this will compile the react code using webpack and generate a folder called docs in the root level
$ npm run start // this will run the files in docs, this behavior is exactly the same how gh-pages will run your static site

Start

$ cd server   // go to server folder
$ npm i       // npm install pacakges
$ npm run dev // run it locally
$ npm run build // this will build the server code to es5 js codes and generate a dist file

Deploy Server to Heroku

$ npm i -g heroku
$ heroku login
...
$ heroku create
$ npm run heroku:add <your-super-amazing-heroku-app>
// remember to run this command in the root level, not the server level, so if you follow the documentation along, you may need to do `cd ..`
$ pwd
/Users/<your-name>/<project-root>
$ npm run deploy:heroku

After creating heroku

remember to update the file of client/webpack.prod.js

 'API_URI': JSON.stringify('https://your-super-amazing-heroku-app.herokuapp.com')
