kindling is a less sucky version of Tinder. It's not ground-breaking nor innovative in any measurable way -- it's simply less sucky.

About

###Technical details I am developing kindling on the MEAN stack. A full list of tools used:

• MongoDB
• Angular
• Node, Express
• Protractor (w/ Selenium), Karma, and Jasmin
• Grunt
• Bootstrap, Sass, Font Awesome, and Material Design (material-design-icons)

#####Potential changes I am considering the following changes:

• MongoDB -> ArangoDB
• Angular -> Flux + React
• Express -> Koa
• Selenium WebDriver -> Phantom
• Grunt -> Gulp
• Bootstrap -> Material Design

Contributing

I still don't know the best way to do this so I'm experimenting. If unsure about process or if you have a better suggestion, please let me know (@tylerdmace).

###Create new issue Create a new issue on Github where the development can be discussed

###Fork, clone, and branch When you branch, you'll do so from the default develop branch and you'll follow the below standard:

<initials>/<action>/<issue-number>

An example of this would be myself adding a new feature which I have created an issue for (let's say it is issue #13):

$ git checkout -b tdm/add/issue-13

• tdm are my initials
• add since I am adding a new feature; other actions might be remove, bug-fix, or update
• issue-13 matches the issue number created in Github

Development

Requirements

• Node (for NPM)
• MongoDB

Installation

Pretty simple setup. Ensure that you've got mongod running and bound to the default port, then:

$ npm install

And to start the server:

$ grunt

#####Database Seed To provide kindling with a database seed:

$ mongoimport kindling-seed.json
