Install dependencies and pre-commit hooks

There is a Makefile with some useful commands to help you get started. For available commands, run make help. To install dependencies and pre-commit hooks, run:

make

Frontend

The frontend is built with React and Next.js. It is being statically built and served on GitHub Pages: https://kludex.github.io/awesome-fastapi-projects/

To run the frontend locally, you need to install Node.js and pnpm. The node version is specified in the .node-version file. To easily manage the node version, you can use fnm. Then, run the following commands:

make front

This will install the dependencies and start the development server. The frontend will be available at http://localhost:3000.
