Since dating apps become one of the mainstream tools for connecting human being, but these apps still don't give any chance to our pets to make new friends.
Pets are always used as human accessories or even as a method for dating. Therefore I created the app to serve the pets, all the user information is about the pets, not about his/her/its owner.

• Clone this repo

• Open the file and start:

  cd dating-apes

  First install all npm package in root folder (backend) and run it:

  npm install
  npm run dev

  Second install all npm package in client folder (frontend) and run it:

  cd client
  npm install
  npm start

• Create .env file with the following variables:

  MONGODB_URI
  TOKEN_SECRET
  CLOUDINARY_NAME
  CLOUDINARY_API_KEY
  CLOUDINARY_API_SECRET
