• Firebase: For user authentication, real-time database management, and cloud storage.
• JavaScript: For developing the frontend logic and dynamic application behavior.

📋 Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed:

• Node.js (v14 or higher)
• React Native CLI or Expo CLI
• Firebase Project with Authentication and Firestore Database enabled

⚙️ Setup & Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/solutech.git
   cd solutech

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Configure Firebase:

   • Create a new Firebase project.
   • Enable Authentication and Firestore Database.
   • Add your Firebase configuration in the firebaseConfig.js file.

4. Run the application:

   npx react-native run-android

   or

   npx react-native run-ios

🔧 Firebase Configuration Create a firebaseConfig.js file in your project directory with the following content:

import { initializeApp } from 'firebase/app';
import { getFirestore } from 'firebase/firestore';
import { getAuth } from 'firebase/auth';

const firebaseConfig = {
  apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY",
  authDomain: "YOUR_PROJECT_ID.firebaseapp.com",
  projectId: "YOUR_PROJECT_ID",
  storageBucket: "YOUR_PROJECT_ID.appspot.com",
  messagingSenderId: "YOUR_MESSAGING_SENDER_ID",
  appId: "YOUR_APP_ID",
};

const app = initializeApp(firebaseConfig);
const db = getFirestore(app);
const auth = getAuth(app);

export { db, auth };

🐳 Docker Setup

To containerize the application, follow these steps:

1. Create a Dockerfile:

   # Use an official Node.js runtime as a parent image
   FROM node:14
   
   # Set the working directory
   WORKDIR /app
   
   # Copy package.json and package-lock.json
   COPY package*.json ./
   
   # Install dependencies
   RUN npm install
   
   # Copy the rest of the application code
   COPY . .
   
   # Expose port
   EXPOSE 8080
   
   # Run the application
   CMD ["npm", "start"]

2. Create a docker-compose.yml file:

   version: '3'
   services:
     app:
       build: .
       ports:
         - "8080:8080"
       volumes:
         - .:/app
       environment:
         - NODE_ENV=development

3. Build and start the Docker containers:

   docker-compose up --build

4. Access the application:

   The application should be accessible at http://localhost:8080. If you encounter issues, ensure that Docker is correctly forwarding the port and that there are no conflicts with other services on your machine.
