## Development
|
3. You may now make your changes and commit them to your branch.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
> Node.js 18 or newer is recommended.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This project is structured as a monorepo using npm workspaces, separated into three packages:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- `client` - Next.js application for the front-end, deployed to [ches.su](https://ches.su) via Vercel.
|
|
||||||
- `server` - Node/Express.js application for the back-end, deployed to [server.ches.su](https://server.ches.su) via Railway.
|
|
||||||
- `types` - Shared type definitions required by the client and server.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Running the project
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Install the necessary dependencies by running `npm install` in the root directory of the project.
|
|
||||||
2. In the `server` directory, create a `.env` file for your PostgreSQL database. You can try [ElephantSQL](https://www.elephantsql.com/) or [Aiven](https://aiven.io/postgresql) for a free hosted database.
|
|
||||||
```env
|
|
||||||
PGHOST=db.example.com
|
|
||||||
PGUSER=exampleuser
|
|
||||||
PGPASSWORD=examplepassword
|
|
||||||
PGDATABASE=chessu
|
|
||||||
```
|
|
||||||
3. Run the development servers with `npm run dev`.
|
|
||||||
- To run the frontend and backend servers separately, use `npm run dev -w client` and `npm run dev -w server`, respectively.
|
|
||||||
4. You can access the frontend at http://localhost:3000 and the backend at http://localhost:3001.
|
|
||||||
5. You may now make your changes and commit them to your branch.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When adding new dependencies or running other commands from the root directory, you can specify the workspace with the `-w` flag. For example, `npm run build -w client` or `npm install express -w server`.
