This project is an example of using a client and server to facilitate transfers between different addresses. Since there is just a single server on the back-end handling transfers, this is clearly very centralized. Consensus is not important by this part of project.
However, something that I would like to incoporate is Public Key Cryptography. By using Elliptic Curve Digital Signatures we can make it so the server only allows transfers that have been signed for by the person who owns the associated address.
The client folder contains a react app using vite. To get started, follow these steps:
- Open up a terminal in the
/clientfolder - Run
npm installto install all the depedencies - Run
npm run devto start the application - Now you should be able to visit the app at http://127.0.0.1:5173/
The server folder contains a node.js server using express. To run the server, follow these steps:
- Open a terminal within the
/serverfolder - Run
npm installto install all the depedencies - Run
node indexto start the server
The application should connect to the default server port (3042) automatically!
Hint - Use nodemon instead of node to automatically restart the server on any changes.
