Nix package version search

See the backend for this project at RikudouSage/NixPackageHistoryBackend.

This is a frontend for the above linked backend that allows searching historical versions of Nix packages.

Tip: If you're using nix, you can get all dependencies using nix-shell with the shell.nix from this repo

Before you can build the app, you need to install dependencies using yarn install (or npm install or whatever you use).

Running locally

Just run the command yarn start and open http://localhost:4200. You can also change the api url in environment.development.ts.

Running in production

Change the url of the api in environment.ts if you wish to.

Run yarn build to compile the production version. Afterwards, copy the contents of dist/nix-package-history-frontend to any webserver capable of serving html.

Note: I've pretty much copied the design from https://search.nixos.org because I'm no designer. If you wish to create a custom modern design, feel free to!
