Notes

This project was built in a sprint in 2 days. Theres some lint issues due to TS and probably there's a better way to build this app 😅

Tech Stack

React
TypeScript
Vite
TailwindCSS
MapboxGL
React-Map-GL
Shadcn/ui
Zustand for state management (due to time constraints, Zustand is faster to setup than Redux)

Features

Getting Started

Clone the repo
Add a .env file with the following variables (you can get a Mapbox token from here):

REACT_APP_MAPBOX_TOKEN=

Install dependencies
Run the app

React + TypeScript + Vite

This template provides a minimal setup to get React working in Vite with HMR and some ESLint rules.

Currently, two official plugins are available:

@vitejs/plugin-react uses Babel for Fast Refresh
@vitejs/plugin-react-swc uses SWC for Fast Refresh

Expanding the ESLint configuration

If you are developing a production application, we recommend updating the configuration to enable type aware lint rules:

Configure the top-level parserOptions property like this:

export default {
  // other rules...
  parserOptions: {
    ecmaVersion: "latest",
    sourceType: "module",
    project: ["./tsconfig.json", "./tsconfig.node.json"],
    tsconfigRootDir: __dirname,
  },
};

Replace plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended to plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended-type-checked or plugin:@typescript-eslint/strict-type-checked
Optionally add plugin:@typescript-eslint/stylistic-type-checked
Install eslint-plugin-react and add plugin:react/recommended & plugin:react/jsx-runtime to the extends list
