Esri Maps for Public Policy Site

Esri’s Public Policy site gives you instant access to hundreds of policy maps that reveal important facts about your community.

At this site, you can explore issues, such as housing, healthcare, or education, across the country or just in your community. Build a map collection, and easily share it with stakeholders to inform policy decisions.

Getting Started

Before we begin, make sure you have a fresh version of Node.js and NPM installed. The current Long Term Support (LTS) release is an ideal starting point.

To begin, clone this repository (or your fork) to your computer:

https://github.com/vannizhang/policymaps-new.git

From the project's root directory, install the required packages (dependencies):

npm install

Running the app

Now you can start the webpack dev server to test the app on your local machine:

# it will start a server instance and begin listening for connections from localhost on port 8080
npm run start

Deployment

To build the app, you can simply run:

# it will place all files needed for deployment into the /build directory 
npm run build
