Welcome to the Karnivali Game Hub

We are creating an online games platform that will allow developers to deliver content to users seemlessly with a speed that hasn't been seen before.

We focus on user experience, robust design and an intuitive layout to deliver a product that stands apart from our competitors.

How to get Team 2's Project up and running locally:

1. Make sure that you have python 3.8 installed on your computer

   • If you don't have it, you can download it here: https://www.python.org/downloads/

2. Make sure that you have node.js installed on your computer

   • If you don't have it, you can download it here: https://nodejs.org/en/download/

3. You can use pip to install these commands in your terminal:

   • pip install django djangorestframework django-cors-headers
   • pip install channels
   • pip install channels-redis==2.4.2
   • pip install django-cors-headers
   • pip install djangorestframework-simplejwt

4. Clone the code from: https://serd.uab.albany.edu/team-2/karnivalli

   • npm install axios
   • cd into the django frontend folder and execute the 'npm install' command to install dependencies

5. Install redis server and run it

   • If you don't have it, you can download it here: https://github.com/MSOpenTech/redis/releases/download/win-3.2.100/Redis-x64-3.2.100.msi
   • Then go to the installed location, by default it will be "C:\Program Files\Redis" and run the redis-cli application. It will start the server

6. Open a terminal window in the '\karnivalli\backend' folder and run:

   • python manage.py runserver

7. Open another terminal window in the '\karnivalli\frontend' folder and run:

   • npm start

In a moment, a new window should pop up, our project will be running locally.
