Elliot for Water is the search engine that donates water with your searches: https://elliotforwater.com
Elliot for Water is a social enterprise, with the mission of providing millions of people with access to safe drinking water. In practice, Elliot for Water is like any other search engine but with the extra characteristic that we donate 60% of our profit to realize clean water projects.
We are a very small team, incessantly working on ElliotForWater to make it become a reality which can help millions of people. To do so we need to develop more functionalities which allow the project to move faster and to deliver a product that our users will love to use. If you are considering contributing, there is a lot you could gain from this project: you could work on a project that actually helps people in need and makes a difference in the world. You will work with modern technologies and will have space to work on medium size tasks, which will actually make the difference and have your sign once in production. And you will work with an open-minded, young team excited to exchange ideas and to get new inputs.

This project is the Frontend code of ElliotForWater. To populate the search results, we have to use an internal API which is held in a different repository, which is not open source. (We are considering to open-source that one too but we need to research the legal implications of it.)
Our API runs in Staging and production environment.
For the purpose of development you can use the staging environment too.
You will find explanatory comments in the .env.staging
file.
