This is a project/pitch planed and developed in less than 48h by a team of 10 people, including me, during Hack the Crisis NZ 2020 (17-19 April). I contributed to building the database in SQLite, API’s and components in React.
The organisers of this hackathon challenged Kiwis to design, test and bring to life innovative ideas for life in New Zealand beyond COVID-19.
The goal was finding innovative solutions to problems brought about by COVID-19 inside three themes:
- Supporting businesses
- Connecting communities
- Resilience and wellbeing
This repository contains the code of what could be finished in time to present the idea to the judges.
The project went to the Top 8 finalist and after that, one of the three runner-ups - 2nd equal winner.
To start the development server with a watcher that rebuilds your code, run npm run dev. The assets built by Webpack are placed in server/public. This folder is defined as a static folder in an Express.js server that can be started with npm run server.
Additional components should be placed in client/components.
The client is also set up to be hosted using webpack-dev-server with hot module reloading etc. To use this method, in one terminal run:
npm run client
and in the other:
npm run serverThe client will be available on http://localhost:8080 and the server on http://localhost:3000. Note that you will still need to manage CORS between the two, as they are on different ports.
