Motivation

I created this app to share my love of space and astronomy with others. I also wanted to create a fun and easy way to learn about the universe.

npm install

Usage

add a .env file to the root directory and add the following:

REACT_APP_API_BASE_URL=your_nasa_apod_api_url

use npm start to start the app

users must sign up with a name, a phone number, an email address and a password. The phone number must have the country code of the country in which the phone number originated: Canada -> +16574832074. The email address must be valid. The user will receive a welcome text message. The user will also receive a text message every day with the NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day.
