Jonah's Unnamed Poker Application

Welcome to my unnamed poker app. This is an interest project I'm doing in my spare time to learn more about real time application development.

I've also got a weekly online poker night with friends and it would be pretty cool to have control over the application we use so we can add whatever features we want.

Developing

1. Clone repo
2. Grab yourself a copy of node (currently the project's on v16.16.0)
3. In the /server directory
   1. Run npm i to install serverside dependencies
   2. Run npm run et to export API types to the client
   3. Run npm run start to start the server
4. In the /client directory, run npm i to install dependencies
   1. Run npm i to install clientside dependencies
   2. Run npm run start to start the client

Once the client spins up you will be able to access it in a browser at localhost:3000.

The server does not automatically refresh when you make changes to it, so any changes in the /server folder will require stopping the server (thereby killing any ongoing sessions) and restarting it with npm run start. Make sure that if you make changes to /server/src/types.ts that you re-run npm run et to export the types to the client before starting the server back up again.

The client does watch for changes in the /client directory and refreshes when you make changes there (without even reloading the page!).
