freeCodeCamp/web/README.md

Getting Started

If you haven't installed freeCodeCamp proper yet, that needs to happen first.

Once that's done, the curriculum server and this package need installing. Then the prepare script will take care of the rest.

cd ../curriculum-server
npm i
cd ../web
npm i
npm run dev

Now the server should be running on port 3000 and the client on port 8000.

For now there's not much to see.

http://localhost:8000/learn/special-path

is the main entry point and

http://localhost:3000/responsive-web-design

is the curriculum data that is currently being used.

Things of Note

Incremental static regeneration is working quite nicely. You can modify the curriculum data (in /curriculum-server/data/curriculum.json), refresh reload your browser and the changes will be reflected.

The trailing ids are a bit buggy, but you can replace them with a new page's mongo id and it ~should~ will refresh.

Also, mangled paths mostly work. For example:

http://localhost:8000/learn/responsive-web-design/applied-an-element/587d774e367417b2b2512a9f

redirects you to

http://localhost:8000/learn/responsive-web-design/applied-accessibility/jump-straight-to-the-content-using-the-main-element/587d774e367417b2b2512a9f

but not all paths behave as desired.
