## 🛠 Running Twinkle Locally (Recommended)

This project is not production-ready, but you can easily run it locally. I've prioritized feature richness over simplicity in this version, but a refactor is on the way in the `branch/refactor`.

### 1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://code.lgbt/ryanamay/twinkle
cd twinkle
```

### 2. Set up your environment

You'll need to create a `.env` file with the following content:
```env
NEXT_PUBLIC_SPARKLE_BASE_URL=https://sparkle-demo.ryawaa.com
```

### 3. Running with Docker Compose (Note: TypeScript issues may arise when building)
```bash
docker-compose up
```
For now, it's better to run the project locally without Docker until the issues are resolved.

### 4. Running Locally (Manual Setup):
```bash
npm install
npm run dev
```
This will start the application on [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000).

## 🛠 Deployment

Though it's not yet production-ready, you can deploy Twinkle using any cloud provider that supports Docker or by running it directly on a server. Just keep in mind that the current codebase might need refinement for production environments, and the refactor branch is in progress.
