# Ping Pong: A firebase Slack app
This project was created as an example of how to build a Slack App using Firebase
as the only backend. The full explanation and walk through of the code can be found
on Medium:
[https://medium.com/evenbit/building-a-slack-app-with-firebase-as-a-backend-151c1c98641d](https://goo.gl/Hh75Z0)
The project is designed for showcasing functionality, not for making any sense.
# Where to Ping Pong
You can download or fork this repository for your own usage or you can install

# How to Ping Pong
1. Install the Slack app to your team.
2. Choose the channel in which Ping Pong is being played (e.g. #general)
3. Start a Ping Pong challenge with the command `/ping`
4. Soon your ping request is being published in the channel that you configured
during installation.
5. Team members should click the "pong" button as soon as possible.
6. The challenge is over when at least three people has clicked "pong"
7. The app will publish the score and reaction time for the first three players
to click "pong"
