• React - Frontend: JavaScript library for creating web apps!
• node.js - Evented I/O for the backend
• Firebase - Backend: Database and Authorization
• Spotify Web API - For authenticating and integrating with Spotify
• Semantic UI - Frontend Framework

There are two ways of running Mutter: 1) accessing it via webpage, or 2) running locally. It is recommended to use method 1 as it represents the web application as it would be during production. Method 2 is provided as backup in case method 1 is unavailable.

Preferred Method (gh-pages branch)
Access via Website: https://princes25.github.io/Mutter/

Backup Method (master branch)
Requires node.js.

In order to run locally, you need to create an .env file in the root folder and define the following variables inside:

• REACT_APP_FIREBASE_API_KEY
• REACT_APP_AUTH_DOMAIN
• REACT_APP_DATABASE_URL
• REACT_APP_PROJECT_ID
• REACT_APP_STORAGE_BUCKET
• REACT_APP_MESSAGING_SENDER_ID
• REACT_APP_APP_ID
• REACT_APP_SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID

Environmental variables REACT_APP_FIREBASE_API_KEY to REACT_APP_APP_ID can be acquired by setting up Firebase for a web app. Follow this tutorial.

REACT_APP_SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID can be acquired by going to Spotify for Developers and creating an app.

See sample.env for an example.

Clone master branch and run the script

$ git clone https://github.com/PrinceS25/Mutter
$ cd mutter
$ ./run.sh
