SeaJSWS Workshop - June 13, 2017

Many thanks to our sponsor, Dev Bootcamp!

Instructions

• You will need to have nodejs installed, don't hesitate to ask for help *

1. Clone the repo, and cd into it
2. Run npm i - this will install Express so you can run the app locally
3. You are encouraged to install nodemon using npm ➡️ npm i -g nodemon, which will live-reload your application as you make changes

• If you do 3. then you can just type npm start to run the server. Changes to static files (html, css, js) will be re-sent by the server automatically, but you will have to manually refresh your browser to see changes.
• Otherwise, type node server.js (you'll have to manually stop and restart the server to show changes, in addition to refreshing the browser 😭.)

4. Visit localhost:3000 in your browser (make sure you aren't already using that port for something else - if the page fails to load, change the port assignment on line 4 of server.js.) This project uses Bootstrap 4 and jQuery 3, cdn links are already included in index.html You can add additional routes in lib/routes.js if you are so inclined

BONUS:

• Add additional routes to lib/routes.js
• Make the docFragger and dataLogger utility functions more robust and versatile
• * Install and run ngrok so you can visit and test your app on a public IP! (disclaimer: seajsws assumes no responsibility for the security of said app.)
• ** Secure said publicly-exposed app using ngrok!! (* I've read this can be done *).

Hope you enjoy and WIN FOREVER! 💥🤘🔥😤💃
