Swim Good

Live sea condition forecasting for wild swimmers.

Swim Good enables swimmers to track the live swimming forecast and view pollution alerts at their favourite beaches, log swim data points including date, location, distance and exertion, and discover suggested beaches in new areas. Developed in React Native with Expo, using a MongoDB database with Mongoose and an Express server on the back end.

Try it out

1. First, get set up with Expo & MongoDB and grab a free Stormglass.io API key.
2. git clone the repo.
3. npm install the dependencies in both the client and server folders.
4. Add an .env file in the client folder, and include your Stormglass API key and Expo connection (follow the .env.example).
5. Run node index.js in the server folder and expo start in the client folder.
6. Scan the QR code from your Expo app and start exploring!
