Pi Demo App

Pi Demo App is an example of how you can implement the various required flows in your app's code. It aims to show you how to use Pi Platform API on the backend side and Pi SDK on the frontend side of your app.

It is composed of two major parts:

  • backend: a backend app (a very simple JSON API built using Node and ExpressJS)
  • frontend: a single-page frontend app (built using React and create-react-app)

Initial Development

Read doc/development.md to get started and learn how to run this app in development.

WARNING

The demo app uses express session cookies which, in the Sandbox environment, are not correctly saved on the client on some browsers. To properly test all of the features of the Demo App, we recommend you to open the sandbox app using Mozilla Firefox.

Deployment

Read doc/deployment.md to learn how to deploy this app on a server using Docker and docker-compose.

Flows

To dive into the implementation of the flows that support the demo app features, please refer to Pi Demo App Flows.
