• Database: MongoDB (no ORM)
• Anti-spam: FingerprintJS-based browser fingerprinting
• Docker Compose
• Kubernetes manifests included for deployment testing

docker quickstart 🚀

git clone https://github.com/3zbumban/realtime-polls-fullstack
cd realtime-polls-fullstack

# create .env file
cp .env.sample .env
docker compose up

architecture

development ⚒

• nodejs -v 18.1.0

• If ports 3000 and 3030 are available

• and you use the command below to run mongoDB (so credentails are the same)

• you won't have to change configs you just have to create .env like the samples

run mongoDB using docker

docker run -d --name mongo-test-1 -e MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_USERNAME=mongouser -e MONGO_INITDB_ROOT_PASSWORD=mongopassword123 -p 27017:27017 mongo:5.0.5

Now open two Terminals one for client and one for server.

client

cd client
cp .env.sample .env
# set `VITE_API_URL` in `.env` if needed
npm i
npm run dev

server

cd server
cp .env.sample .env
# set `PORT` and `MONGO_URI` in `.env` if needed
npm i
npm run dev

deploy

npm i -g vercel
vercel login
vercel deploy
