Collabor8 is a Web App that allows musicians from around the world to record and share tracks, creating a platform for collaboration and creating new music. With Collabor8, users can record their own tracks and add them to existing tracks to create covers or original collaborations.
The project uses:
Express with Typescript
MongoDB with Mongoose
React with Typescript
On top of that it uses Cloudinary to store media, so if you want to run it you'll have to register and place the keys on the .env files
To get started with Collabor8, fork this repo and run
npm install
both in the /server and the /client folders.
Then, create a .env file for the Client folder, that holds your keys to connect to Cloudinary to save your collab tracks and track pictures, following this format:
REACT_APP_CLOUDINARY_UPLOAD_URL = https://api.cloudinary.com/v1_1/XXXXXXXXX/upload
REACT_APP_CLOUDINARY_PRESET = XXXXXXXX
After that, go to the /src folder and run tsc to run the Typescript compiler. Once it's finished, just head to the /build folder and run the index file either by typing node index.js or running nodemon to dynamicaly restart the server when there's changes.
