dev finder is a mobile app that helps developers find peers in a geographic area, fostering new projects, knowledge sharing and professional growth.
Because physical proximity between users is important for such collaboration, you are encouraged to fork this project for your own local area, add your own branding, maybe translate it, and make it part of your portfolio.
Do not forget to setup a backend service to connect your fork to, as instructed below.
The app is not released in the app stores. If you want to run it, follow the setup instructions for developers.
Before running your 'json-server' update the file src/services/api.ts to include your computer's IP address. Change the baseURL to http://your_ip_address_here:3333 and then run:
npx json-server --watch db.json --port 3333 --host your_ip_address_here
To access your server online without running json-server locally, you can set your baseURL to:
https://my-json-server.typicode.com/<your-github-username>/<your-github-repo>
To use my-json-server, make sure your db.json file is located at the repository root.
*NOTE: my-json-server have some limitations. For example, you'll not be able to add any data into the server db.*
- Clone this repository
npm i- Start your own BE server (see backend setup)
