A minimalist web application to send and read SMS messages via Twilio.

A version of this application is available on GitHub Pages:

https://rafacandev.github.io/twilio-sms-web

You will need a Twilio account to read and send SMS messages.

If you don't have an account, Twilio offers a free trial account. Once your account is created you will need to verify your personal phone number. Finally, you also need to get a Twilio phone number with SMS capability.

1. Sign-in to Twilio and get your ACCOUNT SID and AUTH TOKEN on the Twilio's Console Page.
2. Use your ACCOUNT SID and AUTH TOKEN to sign-in to Twilio SMS Web.

We recommend using Node Version Manager that we can consistently align versions.

It bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance in the build folder.

A varient npm run build:prod is also available which is going to override the .env file with the values from a .env-prod.

Intended to be used after npm run build:prod. It deploys the content from the /build folder to: https://rafacandev.github.io/twilio-sms-web/

This project uses dotenv to manage environment variables. Developers can change these values according to their needs via environment variables or editing the .env file.

Sample .env file:

# When this value is populated, then Google Tag Manager is going to be enabled with this publicId, i.e: GTM-0000000
REACT_APP_GOOGLE_TAG_MANAGER_ID=GTM-0000000

# Include your authentication info for auto sign-in
REACT_APP_AUTHENTICATION_ACCOUNT_SID=ACxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
REACT_APP_AUTHENTICATION_API_KEY=SKxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
REACT_APP_AUTHENTICATION_API_SECRET=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

.env files should be managed independently and they should not be pushed to the codebase repository.
