Crowd Microservices follows client-server architecture with three layers: 1) a web client, implemented in AngularJS, which runs on a worker's browser, 2) a back-end, implemented in Node.js, and 3) a persistence store, implemented using Firebase Real-time Database.

Running Crowd Microservices on the local machine

  1. Install Node.js for your platform
  2. Run npm install express to install the express framework
  3. Run node ./bin/www or npm start in terminal
  4. In Google Chrome go to this URL http://localhost:3000/{_project_name_}
  5. For adding a new project, Crowd Microservices has admin dashboard. It is accessible via http://localhost:3000/clientRequest
  6. For deploying completed microservices on another repository which is connected to Heroku, configure GitHub username and password in ./util/deployment_service.js file. After updating the information, re-run Node.js and access it via URL: HTTP://localhost:3000/{_project_name_}/deploy!
