Environment variables

Create a new file called .env in the root of the project. This file will contain all the environment variables that are used in the project.

You can copy the content from the .env.example file and paste it into the .env file.

WS_SERVER_URL - The URL of the WebSocket server where the NodeJS server is running. This is used in the mobile app to connect to the server. Usually, this is the same as the SERVER_URL, but instead of the “http(s)” protocol, it uses the “ws(s)” protocol.

CONFIDENTIALITY_LINK - The link to the confidentiality policy of the application. This is used in the mobile app to show the confidentiality policy. It should be a link to a webpage where the confidentiality policy is described. (After you setup the web app, you will already have a “terms” page that you can use here).
