# Contributing
## Technologies
- NodeJS v10
- Firebase
## Prerequisite - Firebase Setup
1. [Create a new Firebase project.](https://console.firebase.google.com/u/0/)
- The project name doesn't really matter, but just name it `monkeytype`.
- Google Analytics is not necessary.
1. [Install the Firebase CLI](https://firebase.google.com/docs/cli)
1. Run `firebase login` on your terminal to log in to the same google account as you just used to create the project.
1. Git clone this project.
1. Duplicate `.firebaserc_example`, rename the new file to `.firebaserc` and change the project name of default to the firebase project id you just created.
- If `.firebaserc_example` does not exist after cloning, create your own with:
```.firebaserc
{
"projects": {
"default": "your-firebase-project-id"
}
}
```
- Run `firebase projects:list` to find your firebase project id.
1. Generate a Firebase Admin private key
- In your Firebase console, go to Project Settings > Service Accounts
- Click "Generate New Private Key"
- Save as `serviceAccountKey.json` in the `functions/` directory
1. Enable Firebase Authentication
- In the Firebase console, go to Authentication
- Click on `Email/Password`, enable it and save
- Click on `Google`, add a support email and save
1. Enable Firebase Firestore
- In the Firebase console, go to Cloud Firestore
- Create database
- Start in test mode
- Select default location and enable
## Building and Running
1. Run `npm install` in the project root directory to install dependencies.
1. Run `npm run start:dev` to start a local dev server on port 5000. It will watch for changes and rebuild when you edit files in `src/` or `public/`. Use ctrl+c to stop it.
- Run `firebase use <your-project-id>` if you run into any errors for this.
## Standards and Conventions
1. Code style is enforced by [Prettier](https://prettier.io/docs/en/install.html), which is automatically ran every time you `git commit` (if you've followed the above instructions properly).
