Challenge Project

crab.fit

Enter your availability to find a time that works for everyone!

📂 Demo

We are using crab.fit to plan our DINAcon HACKnight meetups this year. It takes an interesting approach to collect personal preference in a data-protection-conformant way, and presents an original interface to enter and visualize group preferences. Despite being a small project, we found it reliable and useful for planning the HACKnight.

Setup

Clone the repo.
Run yarn in both backend and frontend folders.
Run yarn dev in the backend folder to start the API. Note: you will need a google cloud app set up with datastore enabled and set your GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable to your service key path.
Run yarn dev in the frontend folder to start the frontend.

🔌 Browser extension

The browser extension in crabfit-browser-extension can be tested by first running the frontend, and changing the iframe url in the extension's popup.html to match the local Crab Fit. Then it can be loaded as an unpacked extension in Chrome to test.

Deploy

Deployments are managed with GitHub Workflows.

To deploy cron jobs (i.e. monthly cleanup of old events), run gcloud app deploy cron.yaml.

🔌 Browser extension

Compress everything inside the crabfit-browser-extension folder and use that zip to deploy using Chrome web store and Mozilla Add-on store.
