Canister file manager frontend

This is a CRA app that is created to demo the possibilities of the backend canister.

This canister serves as an example of this code.

---

local deployment

To setup the demo application you need to deploy the backend canister and upload the frontend files to it from a local devserver.

backend

• navigate to the backend folder with a CLI
• run dfx start --clean --background
• run dfx deploy --no-wallet
• Take note of the canisterId that is used

frontend

• navigate to the frontend folder with a CLI / open in code editor
• run npm install
• Change the canisterId and host accordingly in src/api/Methods.ts (yes yes, i should have handled it better)
• build the project npm run build
• start the local server npm run start
• open the browser on http://localhost:3000
• upload the files from the build folder and the static directory.
• if that is done visit http://rwlgt-iiaaa-aaaaa-aaaaa-cai.localhost:8080/ (canister id could be different if you have other canisters running locally)
• Frontend should be running on the canister
