Could you please write the documentation for development clearly.

I'm a beginner and student. Could you please try to write the documentation for development clearly. What was the secret key at .env file. There is no documentation for that.

👆👆👆👆This is the error.

Hi!

SECRET can be any random string and is used for generating room name based on public IP address and cookie session (though I don't see session really used anywhere, so cookieSession most likely could be removed).

Does it work when you run yarn develop?

[prasadbobby]

Noo Sir.. Please specify the whole documentation on it or send me through email.

There is a documentation for running it locally already: https://github.com/cowbell/sharedrop#how-to-set-it-up-for-local-development Make sure that the Firebase related environment variables are set correctly.

Also, I've never tried running this project on Windows, so there might be some Windows specific bugs there. If you think everything is set up correctly, but it still doesn't work, you could try to run it on some Linux system, e.g. using Docker.

yeah that's not an issue with windows i think. i have firebase related doubts. What was the line no:2,5 and 6

I'm using something that Google calls "Legacy credentials", so it might not be possible to create these anymore.

Unfortunately, I don't really have time now to look into what would be needed to update Firebase to a more recent version :/ If anyone wants to do PR, they are very, very welcome.
