How to create a public Snazzle instance

Hosting a public Snazzle instance is quite easy, and has less steps than assembling an IKEA chair. However, there are still steps involved, so let's go through those.

Requirements

• Python 3.8 or above

• A server on hand that you can install it on (even your laptop will work, you just need to leave it on 24/7) (replit no longer works for this unless you can use Deployments or get around their egress limits)

Instructions

First, clone the repo and open it in your favourite code editor.

If you don't have one, Notepad will work fine, but we recommend either Notepad++ or VS Code.

Finally, go to app.py and change host and port on line 444, or under wherever it says this:

# CHANGE THIS IF YOU'RE RUNNING A PUBLIC SERVER

And you're done! Now you can access your public server at host:port.
