Installation

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/okasi/pobu.git

Change to the api folder and install development and production dependencies.

cd api
npm install

You will need to set up MongoDB.
Probably would be easiest to use MongoDB Atlas.
Enter the url in .env file located inside api folder.


Change to the view folder and install development and production dependencies.

cd view
npm install

In order to make WebRTC signaling work with STUN and TURN servers you need to create a account at:
http://numb.viagenie.ca/cgi-bin/numbacct
Then you need to fill in your credentials in the .env file located inside the view folder.


Go to the api folder and start the server.

cd api
npm run server

Go to the view folder and run the start script.

cd view
npm run start

About project

Problem

Appointment services such as Calendly, in their current state do not provide direct communication on their platform.
Therefore the hosts and clients are dependent on third-party solutions for communication.
We feel like that is a area that could be effectivized.
It also creates an issue of privacy for the host, because they need to share their "third-party solution" details.

Solution

A web based application that allows clients to book appointments with hosts on our platform.
We provide live communication on the platform so they don't have to be concered about how & where to have the meeting.
The privacy of our users is in our best interest. We promise to not sniff our users conversations.
This repo will be public so that they can check the source code for themselves.
Lastest changes made in the master branch automaticly deploys to our digitalocean droplet via buddy.works.
