Welcome to CookIt 👋

CookIt is the social media app for food lovers! This app was developed for the Design of WWW Services course at Aalto University. The project is structured as a monorepo, with frontend and backend functionality stored in their respective directories.

✨ Demo

Frontend Install

cd ./frontend && npm install

Backend Install

cd ./backend && npm install

Start Frontend or Backend Locally

npm run dev

In order to run the frontend, you need to create a .env file in its root directory (./frontend/) with the following environment variables:

VITE_SERVER_ADDRESS <url for backend>

Similarly, the backend requires the following environment variables:

MONGODB_URI <uri connection string for a MongoDB database>
JWT_SECRET <some secret string>
SERVER_PORT <default is 4000>
SERVER_HOST <probably localhost>
