This project was bootstrapped with Create React App for the front-end and serverless-webpack for the back-end.

How to run locally:

• run npm install on the back_end/ folder to install dependencies.

• run npm start to start the api proxy on the port 4000.

• run npm install on the front_end/ folder to install dependencies.

• run npm start to start the React development server in the port 3000.

How to deploy:

Note: AWS credentials must be set up in advace, if in doubt, go to this link.

Initial deployment:

• run npm run deploy on the back_end/ folder - take note of the endpoint in the result (something like https://kjdhshjkds7681.execute-api.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/staging).

• edit config.json file in front_end/src and replace the "add-me-before-deployment" with the enpoint obtained in the last point.

• run npm run deploy on the front_end/ folder. Take note of the StaticSiteS3BucketWebsiteURL result after running this command, that is the link to the webapp!

Further deployments:

• run npm run deploy on the back_end/ folder to deploy changes to the api.
• run npm run deploy on the front_end/ folder to deploy changes to the webapp (no changes to the config.json file are needed).

Reverting deployment and freeing resources:

• run npm run remove on the back_end/ folder to remove the api.
• run npm run remove on the front_end/ folder to remove the webapp.
