We're making it safe and easy for communities to provide mutual aid.
MutualAid.world is a global community of contributors making small acts of kindness seamless. We build software to meet the direct needs of local organizers, making it safe and easy for people to help each other during times of crisis.
Here are a few geting started steps to help get set up for local development.
-
Fork this repo
-
Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/your_username_/resilience-app.git
-
Install NPM packages
npm install
-
Create a local environment file from the sample
.env.sample
in the project root. From your project root run:cp .env.sample .env
-
Find the appropriate keys in in the
#resilience-app
channel underPinned Items
and fill in your.env
file according to that. -
Install firebase-tools and set up your local environment
npm install -g firebase-tools
This should install the latest version of firebase cli add
firebase
to your path.firebase login
This will pop up your browser and allow you to login. Login using a google handle. Ask on Slack (#resilience-app or #resilience-dev channel) for access to the firebase project before running the next command. Tag one of: Paul Mendoza, Tuan Nguyen, Miles Thompson if they don't pick it up.
firebase use default
This is needed to ensure that the project-id is set in your environment.
-
Start your local development server with
npm run build npm run dev
NOTE: On local development environment, you are always an Organizer.
-
Decide what URL the new app route is and put it in src/app/routing/routes.ts. Please try to use meaningful variable names for the route, they don't need to be exactly the same as the URL.
-
Define the React routes in src/App.jsx using our
<AppRoute />
component. It's a wrapper for the React<Route />
component, but it is aware of authentication and authorization concepts. -
Set appropriate permissions for that new route in src/app/routing/RoutePermissions.ts. The set of permissions we have defined so far are here: src/app/model/permissions/Permissions.ts.
If you're not sure or if you don't see something that matches your usecase of your new route, please bring it up for discussion in Slack (#resilience-app or #resilience-dev channel). It's not always clear what should be a permission and what should not be, however, the rule of thumb is that we focus on CRUD operations.
Note: A route will be inaccessible (404 Page Not Found) if you:
- don't define the route in src/app/routing/routes.ts
- don't define any permissions for the route in src/app/routing/RoutePermissions.ts. We consider the route as not ready because it hasn't been configured.
See CONTRIBUTING.md for more details on how to get involved.
This project uses ESLint and Prettier to handle all opinionated formatting. Install your favorite editor ESLint and Prettier plugin to set up any auto formatting in your own editor.
To format this project, simply run
npm run format
Our CI checks will not pass if any of our ESLint rules; formatting checks can be easily passed with a commit containing the changes made by npm run format

Using react-axe as a library to find accessibilty warnings and errors. Please check the console for warnings or errors from react-axe before committing.
For deployments we're using firebase hosting which allows us to deploy to multiple different environments.
Each of the commands below will require access to the respective firebase project for an authorized deployment.
For deploying to our staging environment:
$ npm run deploy:staging
and for production:
$ npm run deploy:production
