DESCRIPTION

Cycle Source is a web application that is designed to allow users to find and book spin classes near them. Cycle Source was built using a React/Redux front end and a Ruby on Rails back end. I used Amazon Web Services (AWS) to host my images and configured Twilio to send a confirmation text message notification to the user with the details of the specific class they just booked. Users have different authorizations based on whether they login as a rider or an instructor. As a rider, users are able to search for spin studios in their area, review a studio and/or an instructor, and book a spin class (choosing the specific bike they would like to use). As an instructor, users can see a list of all of their classes and the names of each rider that is currently signed up. Instructors cannot reserve spin classes or review studios/other instructors, but they can search and view that data.

INSTALL

1. Clone down this repository to your local machine.
2. Clone down the backend repository to your local machine.
3. Run bundle install in your terminal after cloning down the backend repository.
4. Before launching the app, you'll need to launch our database. In your terminal for the backend repository, run rails db:create, rails db:migrate, and rails db:seed.
5. Run rails s in that same terminal session to launch our server.
6. Once your server is running, run npm install in your terminal for the front-end cloned repository.
7. Once you have installed the npm packages installed and you've started your rails server, run npm start in your terminal for the front-end repository. You will be prompted to start your server on another port (since your backend is already running). Type y to continue.
