Now, let me quickly over you structure of the images gallery application, which consists of two different
microservices front end and API front end is react.
JavaScript application and API is Python Flask application front and application communicates only with
API service and doesn't make any external API requests.
API service on its own after requests from different and application makes a to the Unsplash API.
Unsplash is a service which provides free photos which are uploaded by many different outlets all over
the world, and you are able to retrieve any folder using Unsplash API.
And in order to do so from your own applications, you have to request the EBIT.
And for that, you need to create account at Unsplash, generate such gear and afterwards, use it inside
of your applications.
In the next lecture, I'll explain to you how to get such Unsplash EBIT in order to make such API requests.
But before doing that, let's answer the following question How could we actually run such images?
Gallery application, which consists basically of two different microservices.
We could either run both microservices separately locally on our computers, and in order to do so,
we have to install all necessary applications.
For example, in order to run front and application, you have to install npm with an old GSI on your
computers in order to run ITIL service.
You have to install Python on your computer, and only after installation of such applications, you
will be able to start both services locally on your computers.
This option number one and second option is to run both microservices using Docker without installation
of any additional applications except Docker.
And of course, in this chapter, we will focus primarily on localization of those two microservices
and the creation of for them corresponding Docker files.
Creation of the custom image is based on those Docker files and afterwards the start of both services
U.S. Docker compose.
But initially I would like to demonstrate you how to run those services locally without Docker, and
you could either follow me along and also try to launch both applications locally on your computers
after installation of Lord Jesus and Python.
Or you could simply watch a few next lectures where I'll demonstrate to you how to do that and start
afterwards the causation of those services together with me.
That's up to you.
By the way, if you want to learn how to build such images gallery application, I welcome you to my
full stack web development bootcamp, where I explain in the details how to build such application from
the ground up and next as promised.
Let me explain to you how to get Unsplash Apalachee and added to the API microservice.
I'll see you guys after the smallpox.
