BBSim

BBSim is a simulator of the TV show Big Brother. In this show, there are 14-16 contestants that live in a house, and week by week, 1 by 1, someone is voted out of the house. During this process, a large amount of strategy, relationship building, and manipulation is involved. The purpose of this application is to replicate that behavior as closely as possible.

Technologies Used

  • Backend: Django, Postgres, Python
  • Frontend: React

How to Use

BBSim is hosted on Heroku at https://bigbrothersim.herokuapp.com/, but can also be run locally by following the steps below

  1. Clone this repository
  2. Setup the frontend
    • Make sure you have the latest version of node installed
    • Run $ cd client to switch to the frontend directory and run $ npm install to install the required packages
    • Once finished, run npm start to start the development server
  3. Setup the backend
    • Make sure you have the latest version of Django installed
    • Install from the Pipfile using $ pipenv install
    • Activate the environment using $pipenv shell
    • Start the backend server using $python manage.py runserver
  4. With both of these servers running, you should be able to access the application in your browser at http://localhost:3000/
