🚀 Getting Started

Instructions to set up and run the frontend on your local machine.

Prerequisites

• Node.js (LTS version)
• Bun (used as package manager and runtime)
• A running instance of the backend server.

Installation & Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone [https://github.com/geeky-sambhav/crypto-chat-frontend.git](https://github.com/geeky-sambhav/crypto-chat-frontend.git)
   cd crypto-chat-frontend

2. Install dependencies:

   bun install

3. Set up environment variables: This project requires a connection to its backend. Create a .env file in the root directory:

   touch .env

   Open the .env file and add the following line, pointing to the local backend server's URL:

   NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL=http://localhost:8000
   

Running the Application

1. Make sure your backend server is running.
2. Start the frontend development server. We use port 3000

   bun run dev 

3. Open http://localhost:3000 in your browser to see the application.
