Project-Bite

Bite is a web app designed to help you find an ideal place to eat. Using your location and preferences, we search nearby restaurants using yelp and try to match you with an ideal restaurant. You can also like and dislike restaurants, further curating your future results to the type of restaurants you'd match best with.

Installation

There's two components to this app, the frontend React site, and the backend Node.js app.

1. Run git clone <url> to make a local copy of this repository
2. In terminal, navigate to \bite-frontend\
3. Run npm install
4. Run npm start
5. Navigate back to the root directory, then go to \bite-backend\
6. Run npm install
7. Create a new file inside \bite-backend\src\ named keys.js
8. Acquire a yelp API key here and fill it in a file with this format:

const yelp = {
  APIKey: '...'
};

exports.yelp = yelp;

9. Alternatively, just ask us for our keys.js file and we'll send it to you. We just can't make it public.
10. Run npm start
11. Visit http://localhost:3000/ and start using the app!
