Alien attackers

This application is composed of a Node-Express server and a React frontend. It's currently deployed on Heroku at https://agile-mountain-78716.herokuapp.com

Contributing

Clone the repo with git clone https://github.com/ryanrichholt/alien-attackers.git and then install dependencies with yarn. This will also build the client which is required for the application to run properly. Below is an example:

git clone https://github.com/ryanrichholt/alien-attackers.git
cd alien-attackers/
yarn

Then, you can start the server locally:

yarn start

Now, just make sure you rebuild the client after editing anything in client/, or you won't see the changes reflected in the application frontend. You can also do this with yarn starting from the repo root or the client itself:

yarn build

Adding/Modifying the user profiles

Inside ./models/user.js there is a userSchema definition that can be used to modify the way we store user info in the database. Do not remove the email or password fields.

Adding data routes

Routes can be added to the API in ./routes/api.js. This should be kept very minimal, with logic/computations coded as a controller.
