# maxWellness
Allows personal trainers to track their workouts and those of their clients.
I built this website entirely by myself, and creating it is the main way I
taught myself to code before landing my first job as a frontend dev.
I've begun work on [v2 of this project](https://github.com/maxmonis/max-wellness.com).
---
## Requirements
You'll need `Node.js`, `Yarn`, and `NVM (Node Version Manager)` installed on
your machine to run this locally.
Node can be installed by following the instructions at
[nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/).
Yarn can then be added:
```
npm install --global yarn
```
You can add NVM by following the instructions at
[@nvm-sh/nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm).
---
## Installation
Clone the repo onto your machine and cd into it:
```
git clone https://github.com/maxmonis/maxWellness.git
cd maxWellness
```
Get the latest recommended version of Node JS (stored in `.nvmrc`):
```
nvm use
```
Download all server and client dependencies:
```
yarn devsetup
```
---
## Configuration
Add a file to hold the JWT secret and the URI of the development database on
MongoDB:
```
touch config/default.json
```
Create a JSON object in that file with a key of "mongoURI" and value of
"mongodb+srv://maxmonis:" + "9O89LVHTusqobbhF@workoutappdev." +
"2gnvx.mongodb.net/" + "?retryWrites=true&w=majority" (concatenate those strings
together, I just would like to avoid committing the actual full value).
Add a key of "jwtSecret" with a value you'd like to use as your secret. Here's
an example:
NOTE: I'll need to whitelist your IP address to allow you to access the database, so please feel free to reach out 😊
Alternatively, you can [set up your own database on MongoDB](https://www.mongodb.com/basics/create-database) and use that URI.
---
## Development
Concurrently start the server on port 5000 and the client on port 3000:
```
nvm use
yarn dev
```
Note that you only need to run `nvm use` the first time you start it up in any
working session, since from then on you should already be using the correct
version of Node and `yarn dev` should work fine.
To start the server alone in development mode:
```
yarn serve
```
To start the app alone in development mode:
```
cd app
yarn start
```
---
## Production build
To start the server in production mode:
```
yarn start
```
To create a production build of the app:
```
cd app
yarn build
```
## Deployment
Note the `build` and `start` scripts in the root `package.json` for building and deploying the server and
client together on [render.com](https://render.com/).
Install all server and client dependencies, then build the application:
```
yarn build
```
Start the server:
```
yarn start
```
