You need setup environment variables before running the application in development mode npm run dev or building static pages npm run build.

Included in the repo is a terminal script that can be used to create the .env file. To do this, use the following steps:

  1. Clone the repository to a local directory and navigate to the root folder of this directory.
  2. Type ./create-env-file.sh into the terminal. If you run into any issues such as "permission denied", type chmod u+x ./create-env-file.sh, then run ./create-env-file.sh again.
  3. Step 2 should have created a .env file within the local directory pre-filled with the variable names you will need. You will need to supply the values for these variables by accessing the relevant USL Firebase instance and Mapbox account (Equity AR). Talk to Daniel Sauter if you have any issues with access.
