git clone https://github.com/funador/react-auth-client.git
cd react-auth-client
npm i && HTTPS=true npm start

Facebook requires all apps interacting with their api (including those in development) to be served over https. This means you will need to run create-react-app in https mode. Plus set up certificates for your server. Go ahead and get yourself a cup of coffee. This could take a minute.

To add https to localhost follow these instructions (OS X).

You will also need to manually add the https certificate to Chrome as described here.

You may also need to open a seperate tab for https://localhost:8080 and accept the security warning before the client will push requests through.

If you only want to use Twitter/Google/Github authentication (https is not required), follow the instructions in this branch

Depending on your OS you will have to flag the HTTPS enviornment variable differently. Above is for OS X. Documentation is here.

Follow the instructions in the server repo

Finally open https://localhost:3000

Everything is set up to deploy to Netlify. You just need to npm run build on the client and deploy to netlify.
