Manchester United Quiz

A "Top 10" quiz all about Manchester United statistics. Built with Svelte and manunited.io.

Tech

• Svelte - a really nifty JavaScript framework
• manunited.io - a GraphQL API built by Matt Adams
• urql - a GraphQL client with Svelte bindings
• MSW - Mock Service Worker, for mocking network requests locally in an unobtrusive way
• Simple CSS - A classless CSS framework that makes getting started with decent styling easy-peasy

Running locally

Caveat: You need to have registered with manunited.io to gain access to the API and the relevant Authorisation details.

1. Clone down the repo
2. Install the dependencies via npm i or yarn
3. Create an .env file containing the relevant auth details for the API (see Environment Variables)
4. Run npm run dev to get the site running in hot-reloading dev mode
5. Run npm run dev:staging to run the site in hot-reloading dev mode, but without mocking the API
6. Run npm run build to build the site in prod mode (and npm start to run it)

Environment variables

You'll need to create an .env file containing the following necessary auth details:

CLIENT_ID=[insert client id]
CLIENT_SECRET=[insert client secret]
MANUTD_TOKEN_URL=https://manutd.auth.eu-west-2.amazoncognito.com/token
MANUTD_API_URL=https://api.manunited.io/
