repair-app

This is a Repair App that my family could use for their landscape business

This repo uses yarn which is a new package manager that works in concert with npm. with yarn the dependencies are more accurately tracked to insure that the same version of the package is installed on every machine.

often times i deactivate my google api key so that there isnt any unwanted use of it since it is in a public space. if you find this to be the case, you can simply replace my key with one of your own.

To run this application on your own machine (osX)

1. clone the repo do you local machine
2. install the dependencies via npm

6. read the console log on your termial to see which port it is running on (current defualt port 8000)
7. go to your web browser and view the application locally
