Apars Classroom — Media Engine

Apars Classroom Media Engine (Demo) is a simple demonstration platform that pairs a React frontend with a TypeScript Express backend to showcase creating and joining live classroom sessions and other features.

TL;DR

• Start frontend: cd app && npm install && npm start
• Start backend (dev): cd server && npm install && npm run dev
• Or with Docker Compose: docker-compose up --build

What this repo contains

• A React app (client) in the app folder that provides UI for creating and joining sessions.
• A TypeScript Express server (API) in the server folder that powers session endpoints and utilities.

Requirements

• Node.js (16+ recommended)
• npm or yarn
• (Optional) Docker & Docker Compose

Quickstart (development)

• Frontend

  cd app
  npm install
  npm start

• Backend (development)

  cd server
  npm install
  npm run dev

Run both with Docker

docker-compose up --build

Key files & entry points

• Frontend entry: app/src/App.js
• Frontend metadata: app/package.json and app/README.md
• Backend entry: server/src/server.ts
• Backend app: server/src/app.ts
• Backend metadata: server/package.json
• Compose setup: docker-compose.yml

Notes

• The frontend uses React Router with pages in app/src/pages for session flows (create/join).
• The backend is TypeScript-based; use npm run build in server for a production build and then npm start to run the compiled output.
