A community for challenges on the Steem blockchain.
This website will send requests to the blockchain to get posts belonging to some different tags as "challenge", "colorchallenge" or "culturevulture". We choose to use Node.js with the framework Express.js to develop it.
Before starting cloning that repository, make sure you already installed Node.js and Express.js.
Here is a tutorial explaining how to install Express.js on your computer.
Nodemon is a module really useful for developement. Nodemon will monitor every change on your code and restart the server automatically to apply those changes.
To install it, use the following command :
npm install -g nodemon
For more informations about nodemon, feel free to visit the website.
Use git commands to clone the repository.
Use the following command to launch the server on localhost.
nodemon steemchallengesapp
The page will be available on : http://localhost:3000/
Here is a nice tutorial to understand how Express.js works.
