❓ Why

With this project, you can see the airtags location on a simple web-app from any device. The idea of this project is to learn how Airtags location are stored and how to use them, it has been made for educational purposes.

🚀 Quick start

You'll need

• A bit of time
• Any device running MacOS that needs to be always on (to get airtags location and host the server)

Getting Started On MacOS (Server)

• Install NodeJS (https://nodejs.dev/download)
• Clone the repository in a convenient location
• Replace "localhost" with the local ip address of your Mac in front_airtags/src/config.json (or the external IP address if you want to open it outside of your network)
• run npm install in both back and front folder
• run npm start in back then front folder
• open localhost:3000 on your browser and check if it's working

Getting Started On Your Non-Apple Device (Client)

• Type the IP of your Mac on your address bar, followed by :3000, login, and that's it !

If you want to access it from the external network, do a wireguard server (or open the port 3000, but I do not recommend it)
