React Horizon UI - Open-Source Full-Stack Starter

Hello! This article presents an open-source React Full-Stack starter that uses Chakra as the UI framework and NodeJS for the API backend logic. React Horizon UI, released under the MIT license on Github, can be used in commercial projects or eLearning activities. For newcomers, React is a leading JS library for coding interactive user interfaces baked by Facebook. Thanks for reading!

This amazing UI is crafted and provided for free by Simmmple, a creative web agency that uses Charka UI as the main UI library.

How to use the product

To build the product in a local environment, we need a few basic tools like Git and a decent NodeJS version (16.x or higher).

Step 1 - Clone the project
$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/react-horizon-ui-chakra.git
$ cd react-horizon-ui-chakra
Step 2 - Install dependencies via NPM or yarn
$ npm i
// OR
$ yarn
Step 3 - Start in development mode
$ npm run start 
// OR
$ yarn start

Once the UI is up and running, the next step is to start the API backend server that manages the users: Node JS API (also an open-source project)

Download and start the API server
$ git clone https://github.com/app-generator/api-server-nodejs.git
$ cd api-server-nodejs
$
$ # Install Dependencies 
$ yarn
$
$ # Migrate the database
$ yarn typeorm migration:run
$
$ # Start the API server
$ yarn dev

At this point, with the UI and the backend server up & runnign we should be able to access the UI, register new users, and authenticate.
