| # Whatsapp Clone Client | |
| [//]: # (head-end) | |
| A full working React client for a WhatsApp clone written in latest versions of: | |
| * [React](https://github.com/facebook/react) | |
| * [Material-UI](https://github.com/mui-org/material-ui) | |
| * [Styled Components](https://github.com/styled-components/styled-components) | |
| * [GraphQL](https://github.com/graphql/graphql-js) | |
| * [Typescript](https://github.com/microsoft/TypeScript) | |
| * [Apollo-Client](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client) | |
| * [GraphQL Code Generator](https://github.com/dotansimha/graphql-code-generator) | |
| * [Jest](https://github.com/facebook/jest) | |
| This React client is constantly being updated by using CI tests and renovate. | |
| You can watch this repository to learn about new updates or check out the git diffs between new versions on the [tutorial's version diff pages](https://www.tortilla.academy/Urigo/WhatsApp-Clone-Tutorial) (at the top of the screen). | |
| It can be used as a boilerplate, a full blown example app and even as a [tutorial](https://github.com/Urigo/WhatsApp-Clone-Tutorial). | |
| It also is being accompanied by a WhatsApp clone server located in [this repository](https://github.com/Urigo/WhatsApp-Clone-Server). | |
| ## Running locally | |
| Clone the project. | |
| Clone the [server](https://github.com/Urigo/WhatsApp-Clone-Server) -> make sure both projects are under the same folder and that the server folder | |
| is named by the default name of the server repo `Whatsapp-Clone-Server`. | |
| Install dependencies: | |
| `yarn` | |
| Run the codegen to generate Typescript types from GraphQL (this step requires the server to be cloned under the same repo and its folder to be with it's default name): | |
| `yarn codegen` | |
| Run tests to make sure everything is ok: | |
| `yarn test` | |
| Start the client: | |
| `yarn start` | |
