lireddit

A recreation of Ben Awad's 14 hour Tutorial, but with my own subtle improvements in code quality and developer experience.

Demo here

Improvements include:

Original Repository here.

Setup postgresql: here's guides for Ubuntu and Manjaro/Arch.

Create a database called lireddit:

createdb -U postgres lireddit

Then, in the root project directory, run the following:

cd server
cp .env.EXAMPLE .env

Edit CORS_ORIGIN and DOMAIN as needed, and then run

yarn
yarn build
yarn start

cd web
cp .env.production.local.EXAMPLE .env.production.local

Edit the variables as needed, and then run

yarn
yarn build
yarn start

Setup postgresql: here's guides for Ubuntu and Manjaro/Arch.

Create a database called lireddit, and another called lireddit-test:

createdb -U postgres lireddit
createdb -U postgres lireddit-test

Run yarn watch in one terminal window, and yarn dev in the other.

You get hot reload and database auto-synchronization enabled by default.

Testing: run yarn test

Run yarn dev to start the next server in development mode.

Testing: run yarn test:frontend in the server folder and yarn test in the web folder.
