Dropzone, full stack poc

POC for building a browser dropzone that can upload any file. For testing purposes an simple backend is added.

What to do

• Build Express backend to upload any filetype
• Build Web UI for dropzone -- Technology can be determined later: React, Angular, Plain old JS, TS. (-- Provide Postman files for testing backend.) -- Write steps to run project.

Install express backend

change directory:

cd dropzone-express-server

install dependencies:

npm install

Run express backend

run the app:

npm start

The debug doesn't seem to work anymore.

SET DEBUG=dropzone-express-server:* & npm start

Install the dropzone-frontend

change directory: > cd dropzone-frontend

install dependencies: > npm install

Run with reload the dropzone-frontend

> npm run start

Start your browser in insecure mode (to bypass cors issues).

Go to http://localhost:8080/

Make your changes, more info about building and publishing the lib can be found in HOW_TO_BUILD_AND_PUBLISH_LIB.

After a new version

Install the dropzone-frontend-test-app

change directory:

cd dropzone-frontend-test-app

install dependencies:

npm install

npm upd dropzone-frontend

Run and test the new version

npm run start
