Installing Wittr App on Windows

Follow the below steps to install wittr app on Windows:

1. Install Node.js.

2. Install Git.

3. Create a folder and open Command Prompt and type git clone https://github.com/jakearchibald/wittr

4. After the repository is cloned then go to wittr directory, open Command Prompt and type npm install. This will install all the dependencies which are required for the project. If there are no errors while installing dependencies then you can skip steps 5 and 6

5. If step 4 gives errors then, type npm install -g windows-build-tools (this will install all the dependencies which are required to compile native Node modules).

Note: Installation of windows-build-tools take some time, so please be patient.

6. After build tools are installed then type npm install

7. Type npm run serve to start the server. If there are no errors while starting server, hooray!! 👯 you did it 💃💃, now navigate to http://localhost:8888, wittr app is running now on port 8888.

Note: If your app is unable to run on port 8888 then try changing the port number from server/index.js to anything other than 8888 and repeat step 7 by replacing 8888 in the url to the port number which you specified in server/index.js.
