The repo for the MERN E-Commerce React App
Welcome to my repo of the Traversify Media's ProShop course. I started this project on July 18th and after three months of juggling a multitude of real life events, I was finally able to finish the course. This course helped teach me a multitude of new technologies that I could use for future repos like Redux, Concurrently, Morgan, bCrypt, etc. I plan to do a writeup of that experience in my Learning Folder repo.
Clone the repo and do npm install in both the root and the front end. Then set up your .env file as shown below:
NODE_ENV = development
PORT = 5000
MONGO_URI = ${MongoDB URI} (you set this up)
JWT_SECRET =${JWT Secret} (you also set that up)
PAYPAL_CLIENT_ID= ${PayPal sandbox ID} (you also set that up)
npm run dev -> concurrently starts the back and front end
npm run data:import -> imports the seed data into the database
