# Example Applications

<br />

Dodgeball provides pre-configured example applications to help you get started quickly. These are designed to work with your API keys and can be used to test your checkpoints, while serving as a reference for how the SDKs work together in practice.

## Configure Repository

Example applications are available on GitHub: <https://github.com/dodgeballhq/dodgeball-examples>

Clone the repository:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/dodgeballhq/dodgeball-examples.git
```

Navigate to the `dodgeball-examples` directory and follow the README instructions.

### Setup the Node.js Backend

1. Navigate to `server/node-ts`
2. Configure your `.env` file per the README
3. Run the startup commands per the README

### Setup the Vite + TypeScript Frontend

1. Navigate to `client/web-vite-typescript`
2. Configure your `.env` file per the README
3. Run the startup commands per the README

## Experiment with Example Functionality

Once running, interact with the application to see Dodgeball in action:

* **Track users, sessions, and devices** — See how Dodgeball tracks users, sessions, and devices (session replay, device fingerprinting, etc.).
* **Call a Checkpoint** — Enter a checkpoint name from the Dodgeball Dashboard and observe how the application responds.
* **Send a Server Event** — Send a server event and observe the response.

### View Developer Logs

After sending checkpoints, view logs in the Dodgeball Dashboard under **Developer Center > Checkpoint Logs**.

### Modify Checkpoints and Test Real Workflows

Once you've tested an empty workflow, start adding logic to checkpoints. A good starting point is adding an MFA step — see [Adding MFA to your Application](https://developer.spreedly.com/docs/adding-mfa) for more. This demonstrates how multi-step workflows can be built and managed without changing code.
