Marvel JARVIG

For that, the player answers a set of questions regarding the Marvel Universe to determine if he truly knows every character.

Moreover, the game is fully customizable: the player can choose the level of complexity by tweaking some parameters (Newbie, Intermediate, Master, or Custom).

React + Redux + Styled-Components

Marvel JARVIG was built using React, it calls the Marvel Comics API to fetch Marvel Characters data. The app then generates questions using that data and displays them to the player.

The architecture of the project follows Redux to manage the state of the app.

The User Interface is built using styled-components.

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

Setting up the development environment

1. Install Node.js & yarn

2. Install the project dependencies using yarn:

   yarn

3. ⚠️ Create a config file using the sample file src/config/index.js.dist.

Remove the .dist extension and replace the Marvel API public and private keys with your own. You can get the those keys on the Marvel developer portal

Run the game

yarn start

✔️ You're all set! You can now view Marvel JARVIG on http://localhost:3000.
