ToyFy web-application’s aim is to educate the children about the value of money and currency by comparing the value of their favorite toy in different countries in the world. This WebApp is specially designed for children of age group 5 - 13 years. The point is not to prevent the kid from getting the wanted toy, but to give them some understanding of money value and to prepare them for their future. This application enables parents to create their own profile and children can also use the same.
- Gradle: This is a Gradle based project.
- Spring(Backend server): A Java based framework with MVC and Hibernate dependencies is used.
- React(Frontend development server): A framework to develop the frontend part of the project.
- Database (Postgres).
- Install
dockeranddocker-compose. - Install
Nodejs. - Install a proper IDE/Text editor forJava and Javascript. IntelliJ community edition is recommended for Java development but doesn't work very well with JavaScript. It's therefore recommended to use VS Code or any other JavaScript-friendly IDE when working with frontend code.
To start the database open the terminal and cd your way in to the project root folder. You can just simply run
docker-compose up to start the database. Closing the terminal will kill the database. So you need to restart the database every time you need to use it.
Open the root folder in IntelliJ and import all the gradle dependencies (this has to be done only once). Make sure that the database is running (see steps above) otherwise the backend won't have access to it. Then run the main class at
src/main/java/se/kth/sda6/skeleton/SkeletonApplication.java to start the web server.
To install the project dependencies for the frontend, open the terminal and make sure that the current directory is frontend. You can then run npm install to install all the dependencies needed for the project (This has to be done only once).
To start the frontend server run npm start from the frontend directory. Make sure that database and backend server are also running so that the frontend can interact with the backend.
