Brain Exercise Initative 🧠

About

Brain Exercise Initative is a nonprofit focused on preventing memory loss through brain exercise. Through innovative research in Japan, it was found that doing simple math and reading exercises aloud caused improvements in cognitive function. Brain Exercise Initiative builds off of this research, holding brain exercise programs at retirement homes.

Getting Started

1. NodeJS v16+
2. Expo (on Android/iOS App Store)

Install

yarn

Usage

yarn start or yarn dev

This command starts a local Expo development server. On your phone, you will need to scan the generated QR code using the Expo app or navigate to the provided URL in a browser.

Make sure the connection type on the Expo dashboard is set to "Local".

Run With Docker

1. Install Docker
2. Obtain the Bitwarden password from your EM. Create a bitwarden.env file and fill it in with the following contents:

   BW_PASSWORD=<your bitwarden password>
   

   This only needs to be done on your first run. After that, you should delete the file from your repository to avoid pushing it to Github.
3. Start the application with Docker Compose: docker compose up

If you make any changes to the packages, you may need to rebuild the images. To do this, append --build to the above docker compose up command.

The Dockerized application will have live-reloading of changes made on the host machine.

Note: On linux-based operating systems, if you come across an entrypoint permission error (i.e. process: exec: "./entrypoint.sh": permission denied: unknown), run chmod +x ./entrypoint.sh to make the shell file an executable.

Windows Users: If you come across this error exec ./entrypoint.sh: no such file or directory when running the docker compose command, please follow this Stackoverflow thread to fix it.
