Quick start

This project is a calendar app that uses linked data for weather info on your own calendar, all stored in your personal solid pod.

Get a pod

Solid pods are moveable, privacy-focused, decentralised data stores. See the solid project website for more info on that.

Before you can use this application, you’ll need a Solid pod by either…

   ... locally running our test pod.

This will quickly set up a Solid community server and create a pod with auto-inserted test credentials. Setup & start:

git clone https://github.com/osoc22/project-idlab.git
cd project-idlab/solidpod-testserver/
npm install
npm start

If you select y on the post install script, the following credentials will be set:

- base url/pod host/identity provider: http://localhost:3000/
- name: johndoe
- email: johndoe@localhost.be
- password: johndoe

Use our app!

Next, all you have to do is open our web app, and you’re all set!

Enter your Solid identity provider, and where you want the calendar to be stored
