## Prerequisites
Make sure you have these installed before you start:
| Tool | Version | Download |

| Expo Go (phone) | Latest | Play Store / App Store |
---
## Getting Started
### 1. Clone the repository
```bash
git clone github.com
cd moodmate-app
```
### 2. Install dependencies
```bash
npm install
```
### 3. Update the backend IP address
Open `src/config.ts` and replace the IP with your teammate's PC IP address:
```ts
export const BACKEND_BASE_URL = 'your_pc_ip';
```
**How to find your IP (Windows):**
1. Open Command Prompt
2. Run: `ipconfig`
3. Find **IPv4 Address** under your Wi-Fi adapter
4. Replace `YOUR_PC_IP` with that address (e.g. `192.168.1.105`)
> ⚠️ This IP changes every time you reconnect to Wi-Fi. Always check it first if the app can't connect.
### 4. Start the backend first
The backend must be running before you launch the app.
See the `backend` branch for backend setup instructions.
### 5. Run the app
```bash
npm start
```
Then:
- Install **Expo Go** on your Android phone
- Scan the **QR code** shown in the terminal
- Make sure your phone and PC are on the **same Wi-Fi network**
