Fit Social is a primarily mobile social media platform that allows users to track, share, and compare their fitness progress. The ultimate goal of Fit Social is to bring people who have the same passion for fitness together and help them to gain motivation and information toward accomplishing their fitness goals.

Fit Social uses Rust with Rocket.rs and SurrealDB in the backend, and React Native and Node for the frontend.

Running for development

Before running, make sure you have Rust installed and on the frontend directory run

npm i

To run the backend server, go to backend and switch to the nightly version of rust

rustup default nightly

Then, run

cargo run

To serve the frontend, go to frontend and run

npm start

You can then scan the QR code or click on the entry in Expo Go to run on mobile. You may be able to run the app on a Mac using an emulator, more information can be found here. It has not been tested if the app works on Android, but theoretically it should work. Note we do not currently support running the frontend on web.

Testing

You can test the backend by going to the backend and running

cargo test

You can test if the frontend builds by going to the frontend and running

npm run build --if-present
