GLB-NFT Minting

Overview

GLB-NFT Minting is a project aimed at creating and minting NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) representing 3D models stored as GLB files on IPFS. The project consists of a Vite + React client for the front end and a Node.js + Truffle Ganache server for the backend.

Setup Steps

Client (Vite + React)

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository_url>

2. Navigate to the client directory:

   cd client

3. Install dependencies:

   npm install

4. Create a .env.local file in the client directory and refer to example.env.local for the required environment variables.

5. Start the development server:

   npm run dev

6. Access the application at http://localhost:3000 in your browser.

Server (Node.js + Truffle Ganache)

1. Navigate to the server directory:

   cd server

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Create a .env file in the server directory and refer to example.env for the required environment variables.
