# Nym Network Explorer
The network explorer lets you explore the Nym network.
## Getting started
You will need:
- NodeJS (use `nvm install` to automatically install the correct version)
- `npm`
- `yarn`
> **Note**: This project ipart of a mono repo, so you will need to build the shared packages before starting. And any time they change, you'll need to rebuild them.
From the [root of the repository](../README.md) run the following to build shared packages:
```
yarn
yarn build
```
From the `explorer` directory of the `nym` monorepo, run:
```
cd explorer
yarn start
```
You can then open a browser to http://localhost:3000 and start development.
## Development
Documentation for developers [can be found here](./docs).
Several environment variables are required. They can be
provisioned via a `.env` file. For convenience a `.env.dev` is
provided, just copy its content into `.env`.
#### Required env vars
```
EXPLORER_API_URL
NYM_API_URL
VALIDATOR_URL
BIG_DIPPER_URL
CURRENCY_DENOM
CURRENCY_STAKING_DENOM
```
## Deployment
Build the UI with (starting in the repository root):
```
yarn
yarn build
cd explorer
yarn build
```
The output will be in the `dist` directory. Serve this with `nginx` or `httpd`.
Make sure you have built the [explorer-api](./explorer-api) and are running it as a service proxied through
`nginx` or `httpd` so that both the UI and API are running on the same host.
