## Installation and Setup

- Make sure you've joined our [discord server](https://discord.gg/uZv6ShY345) so you can connect in case you face any issues.
- **Prerequisites:** Node.js, MongoDB, Git

### Steps to Run Locally

1. After forking the repository, Clone the forked repository:

```bash
   git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/EduHaven.git
   cd EduHaven

```

2. Install dependencies:

```bash
   # Install backend dependencies
   cd Server
   npm install

# Install frontend dependencies
   cd ../Client
   npm install
   ```

3. Set up environment variables:

- **for frontend:**

- create a `.env` file in the `/Client` directory, and copy all the contents from `.env.example`.

- **for backend:**

- Create a `.env` file in the `/Server` directory.
     - Follow the instructions provided in `.env.example` file to create a new `.env` file for backend.

🔴 **make sure the contents of `.env.example` file must remain untouched.**

4. Start the development servers:

```bash
   # Start backend server
   cd Server
   npm run dev

# Start frontend server
   cd ../Client
   npm run dev
   ```

## Troubleshooting

**MongoDB not connecting** — `MongoNetworkError`. Use local service or Atlas; example connect:
```js
// Server/Database/Db.js
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const uri = process.env.MONGO_URI || 'mongodb://localhost:27017/eduhaven';
mongoose.connect(uri, { useNewUrlParser:true, useUnifiedTopology:true })
  .then(()=>console.log('MongoDB connected'))
  .catch(err=>{ console.error('MongoDB error:', err.message); process.exit(1); });
```

**CORS blocked** — "blocked by CORS policy". Enable CORS and set client origin:
```js
// Server/index.js (before routes)
const cors = require('cors');
app.use(cors({ origin: process.env.CLIENT_URL || '*', credentials: true }));
```

**OAuth / infinite loading** — spinner never returns. Clear browser storage for localhost and verify `GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID`, `GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET` and exact redirect URI in .env and provider console.

## Contribution Guidelines

1. You must get assigned to the issue before you start working on it. leave comment to get issue assigned.
2. Code must be properly formatted. (use preetier configuration provided)
3. Commits should generally be minimal
4. The body of the commit message should explain why and how the change was made.It should provide clear context for all changes mage that will help both a reviewer now, and a developer looking at your changes a year later, understand the motivation behind your decisions.

We welcome contributions to make **EduHaven** better for students everywhere! Here’s how you can contribute:

1. Fork the repository.
2. Create a new branch for your feature/bugfix:
   ```bash
   git checkout -b feature-name
   ```
3. Make your changes and test them thoroughly.

- For frontend changes, also run:
  ```bash
  npm run build
  ```
  and verify there are no build errors.

4. Commit and push your changes:
   ```bash
   git add .
   git commit -m "Add a brief description of your changes"
   git push origin feature-name
   ```
5. Before pushing frontend changes, **run** `npm run build` locally to ensure the project builds successfully. Catch & solve any potential deployment issues early, if any.
6. Create a Pull Request (PR) with a detailed explanation of your changes.
