Welcome to the world of Atlas! Atlas is a sophisticated user interface designed for exploring and interacting with the Joystream network, allowing users to watch content, trade NFTs, and much more. If you’re interested in running your own instance or contributing to this exciting project, you’re in the right place. Let’s get started!

Functionality of Atlas

• Watch content hosted on the Joystream network
• Explore the most popular content and channels
• Sign up for your Joystream membership
• Create a channel and publish content
• Issue and trade NFTs for the content you’ve published

Getting Started with Atlas

To run your own instance of Atlas, follow these steps:

1. Clone the Repository

First, you’ll need to clone the Atlas repository from GitHub. Open your terminal and type the following command:

git clone https://github.com/Joystream/atlas

2. Install Dependencies

After cloning the repo, navigate into the Atlas directory:

cd atlas

Then install all the necessary dependencies by running:

yarn install

3. Run the Development Server

Now that you have everything set up, start the development server with:

yarn atlas:dev

This command will start the server on localhost:3000, allowing you to access your new Atlas instance!

Understanding the Code: A Navigational Analogy

Imagine Atlas as a large, complex library. Each repository you clone is like a new section of books being added to your library. Installing dependencies is like organizing your bookshelves to ensure everything is orderly and easy to navigate. Once you run the development server, it’s akin to opening the doors of your library to the public, allowing visitors (users) to explore, read, and enjoy all that you have curated!

Contributing to the Atlas Project

Your contributions are welcome! Before diving in, familiarize yourself with these essential documents:

• CONTRIBUTING.md – A roadmap of our expectations in terms of work processes.
• Code conventions and styleguide – A guide on the coding style we adhere to.
• Technical overview – Insight into Atlas’s architecture and data sources.

If you’re looking for a starter task, check out the good first issue label or bugs in the project.

Quick Troubleshooting Tips

• Ensure all dependencies are correctly installed. Sometimes a dependency might fail to install due to network or environment issues.
• If you can’t access the development server, double-check that you’ve navigated to the right directory and that the server is running on localhost:3000.
