Technical Stack

• Backend: Python with Flask
• Frontend: React

Database Schema

The game utilizes a robust database schema to manage questions, players, games, categories, translations, and much more. Please refer to the DB schema provided in the repository for a comprehensive overview.

Setup & Installation

Dependencies

• Frontend: Check the package.json file for a detailed list of frontend dependencies.
• Backend: Refer to the requirements.txt file for the necessary Python packages.

Quick Start

Running Locally

For macOS and Linux:

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/<your_username>/llm-trivia-game.git
cd llm-trivia-game

2. Utilize the Makefile for an easy setup:

make setup

This command streamlines the backend & frontend dependencies, database configuration, environment variable setup, and also constructs the frontend for development.

Using Docker

If you have Docker installed, you can run the game using:

make build
make up

Advanced Makefile Commands

For a more detailed setup and individual command execution, the Makefile provides a plethora of commands:

make install_all                  - Install both backend and frontend dependencies.
make setup                        - Full project setup (including installation, DB, and environment).
make start_backend_server         - Initiate the backend server.
make start_frontend_server_dev    - Launch the frontend server in development mode.
... [see the Makefile for a complete list of commands]

Deployment

This project supports deployment to live servers. The deployment script and detailed instructions are currently under development (WIP).
