Lesson 15 Moralis.io UI changed, no option to create server for the lesson.

[tsuccar]

I'm unable to follow the video instruction to create Moralis server after signing up. I can get "web3 api key" however, not the serverURL as described in the video.

I'd appreciate the help if anyone have worked on the UI since the change.

You'll find a step-by-step tutorial to create the dApp w/ the new UI here: https://docs.moralis.io/docs/your-first-dapp

I read the steps and it's instructing to install the "express server", do I need to follow it completely ?
I am currently following patrick's Moralis frontend code using nextJs : https://github.com/PatrickAlphaC/nextjs-nft-marketplace-moralis-fcc. I'm not sure how to integrate the "express server" installation and integration with to Lesson 15 code above.

I guess my question is, are we supposed to create a new project separate from Lesson 15 project in VScode, to create an express server that will be a "moralis server" for our frontEnd ? both local on my machine ?

If so, all three projects (Backend hardhat contract, NextJs FrontEnd, & "Moralis Server using Express Server") on the same machine ?

I cannot seem to find a way to use the legacy version (moralis-v1), as the actual website has no way to self-host a server. (See: Link to Moralis Docs) for the old method, which requires the website for hosting)

So, it seems we have to use the new one as described above.

Here's the Link to EVM API docs if you require such functionalities, but for a server--I think--you have to use the one as outlined above; the above section seems to be the only mention of self-hosting anywhere in the new docs., so you will have to find a way to use the new one :(

Unfortunately, I think we need to do somehing like this... https://docs.moralis.io/docs/v1-server-self-hosting

[tsuccar]

I wonder what's the best path which will be consistent with Lesson 15 tutorial between :

1. https://docs.moralis.io/docs/v1-server-self-hosting (deemed tricky to setup and uses Moralis-v1)
2. https://docs.moralis.io/docs/your-first-dapp (not sure NodeJs, vs Nextjs path , seems to be current version after v1)

Well, yeah maybe the second one. But I did not get from the tutorial, if its gonna fit what we do. I see that you can create a server, but does it do the same as in the tutorial. I guess we need to get our hands dirty ;/
@PatrickAlphaC Hey Patrick, just a note that moralis has changed. Whenever you can, you may update the course. Btw thanks for the massive and great work with the course! Extremely helpful
