React Chess

A lightweight, real-time chess app built in Node, Socket.IO, React, and Immutable.

Development

Node.js 18 or newer is recommended.

This project is structured as a monorepo, divided into two packages:

client - React.js application for the front-end, deployed to Chess-client.
server - Node, Socket.io application for the back-end, deployed to Chess-server.

To get a local copy up and running follow these simple example steps.

cd into backend and write npm install or npm i in command terminal
```
$ cd server
$/server npm install
```
Write npm run dev to start the backend server
```
$/server npm run dev
```

cd into my-project and write npm install or npm i in command terminal
```
$ cd client
$/client npm install
```
Write npm start to start the react server
```
$/client npm start
```

Create a .env file in the client directory and add the next contents to it:

  REACT_APP_WS_URL : localhost:5000 or any other url to connect web socket`

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
