Thanks for purchasing our product, you must know that you will get all the upcoming updates/upgrades of this product for free!

We made this documentation for you to understand properly how you can setup and start using our product 'PickMe', you don't need any coding or server management knowledge, we want this item to be used easily by everyone, not only developers.

Our application uses firebase which provides realtime database for storing data of users and stockage (images/videos/audios etc), also you can simply host your app in firebase hosting and connect it to your custom domain (or use free domain given by firebase).
Simply... firebase gives you all you need!

Requirements

PickMe can work on any machine that supports Node v12. Also you will need to have a firebase account because PickMe uses firebase essencially as a backend, don't worry we are covering all the installation process (we made video records so you can follow the instructions easily) from creating the firebase account to hosting and publishing the app successfully

Rebranding

Customizing design

All the style of the PickMe app is in 'index.css', it is well organised with comments, so you will not find difficulty to change the whole design. We use also bootstrap 4 for the responsive layout and for making the design better.
Here is the location of the 'index.css' 

                
pickMe\src\assets\index.css
Change application icon
                
pickMe\public\favicon.ico

You can change the 'favicon.ico' with your own icon (keep the same name which is favicon)
