Tikera is a full-stack cinema ticketing application built with React on the frontend and Laravel on the backend. It lets users browse movies, view screenings, select seats, and book tickets — while administrators can manage movies and screenings through a dedicated admin panel. This guide walks you through cloning the repository and running both servers locally.

​
Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have the following installed:
  • Node.js v16 or higher
  • PHP 8.1 or higher
  • Composer

​

1

Clone the repository

Clone the Tikera repository and navigate into the project root:
git clone https://github.com/raczkodavid/tikera-v2.git
cd tikera-v2
2

Install frontend dependencies

Move into the client directory and install the Node.js dependencies:
cd client
npm install
3

Install backend dependencies

Move into the server directory and install the PHP dependencies via Composer:
cd ../server
composer install
4

Configure environment variables

Copy the example environment file to create your local .env:
cp .env.example .env
5

Generate application key

Generate the Laravel application key:
php artisan key:generate
6

Run migrations and seed the database

Run the database migrations and seed initial data (including the admin user):
php artisan migrate --seed

php artisan serve
The API will be available at http://127.0.0.1:8000 by default.
