Berlin Meetup API

This is an API that was build to power the demo applications that are being build for the Berlin JavaScript Framework Special Meetup organized by:

• Berlin.js
• Angular Berlin
• Ember Berlin
• Ionic Berlin

The API is a simple API that is supposed to power all the aspects required in the tasks for the demo application. You can find the documentation of the different endpoints in the API Reference.

Setup

The simplest way to deploy this API yourself is by remixing it on Glitch by clicking the button below:

Alternatively you can deploy it yourself if you have Node.js, npm installed and git installed:

git clone https://github.com/berlinjs/framework-special-2018-backend.git
cd framework-special-2018-backend
npm install
npm start

The server will be running by default on port 3000. Check if your server is running by going to http://localhost:3000.
