## Contributing

First of all - you are very welcome to contribute, Memcode is a joint effort.   
Before contributing, it's a good idea to create a related issue.


<!-- Note: if you'd like to use online development environment, try <a href="https://github.com/lakesare/memcode/blob/master/Gitpod.md">Gitpod.md</a> (might need some adjustments). The steps below are for the local setup. -->

#### Create a database postgres user with a password.
1. Install PostgreSQL.
2. Go to postgres console: `psql postgres`.
3. Create a `postgres` user with password: `CREATE ROLE postgres WITH LOGIN PASSWORD 'postgres';`.
4. Give the user a permission to create dbs, own all extensions, etc.: `ALTER ROLE postgres with superuser;`.

#### Copypaste environment variables.
1. Copy the example environment file with `cp env.example.js env.js`
2. Insert the necessary values - all those marked with "Required for local development"

#### Install the needed libraries.
1. Install npm.
2. Run `npm install`

#### Set up the database.
1. Create a new development database 'memcode': `make db-reset`.  
This will create the raw database for you - schema and a few necessary database rows.  

#### Start code compilers and server.
1. Run `make all` in your terminal.
This will start:
- `make backend-webpack` (compiles the backend code on every change)
- `make frontend-webpack` (compiles the frontend code on every change)
- `make start` (starts the node server)
for you.  
You can also run these separately if you wish to see the individual output.
2. Go to <a href="http://localhost:3000/">http://localhost:3000</a>, and enjoy the development!
