50lbs of flare in a 10lb app! (👀)

This vibrant, feature-rich application not only allows users to keep track of their contacts but also enriches daily life management through a multi-feature dashboard. Users can indulge in daily wisdom quotes, chuckle at dad jokes, organize their to-do list, explore weather patterns, dive into current news, and more—all within a visually stunning interface.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Prerequisites

• Node.js (preferably the latest LTS version)
• npm (comes installed with Node.js) or Yarn
• A browser to view the app

Setup

1. Generate the basic template:

   npx create-remix@latest --template ryanflorence/remix-tutorial-template
   

   This uses a bare-bones template but includes our Chakra UI and data model, focusing on Remix. Check the Remix Quick Start for a basic setup of a Remix project.

2. Start the app:

   # Navigate into your directory where you've unzipped the app
   cd path-to-your-app
   
   # Install dependencies
   npm install
   
   # Start the development server
   npm run dev
   

   You should now be able to open http://localhost:3000 and view your app locally.
