README
This is a [Next.js](https://nextjs.org/) project created to demonstrate how to work with Slack resources in several different ways.
## Getting started
To get started, you can clone this repository to your local machine:
```
git clone https://github.com/JEverhart383/slack-app-playground.git
```
Then you can install the project's dependencies using `npm install`. To start the server in dev mode, run the `npm run dev` command.
Some of the Slack examples, like OAuth and interactivity, require a public HTTPS url, so consider installing [NGROK](https://ngrok.com/) to help connect your local server to the public internet. With your dev server running, the following command will generate a public url you can use in your Slack app settings:
```
ngrok http http://localhost:3000
```
## Authentication
In general, Slack authentication revolves around different [types of tokens](https://api.slack.com/authentication/token-types). The examples in this repository will illustrate both bot and user token examples.
### Installing as a bot
To obtain [a bot token](https://api.slack.com/start/quickstart), follow these instructions and then create a `.env.local` file and store the bot token as `SLACK_TOKEN` to be used in the examples.
