spartan

Welcome to the spartan mono-repo. This Nx repository holds both the spartan/stack and spartan/ui libraries.

Important: This is a work in progress, and we update the README as major development efforts are started.

The 300 spartans

All of spartan is an MIT-licensed open source project with its ongoing development made possible by contributors and sponsors.

Our initial 300 contributors and sponsors are featured here and on the front page of spartan.ng

spartan/ui

spartan/ui is our effort to port the incredible shadcn/ui project over to the Angular ecosystem.

The idea is to create un-styled primitives similar to Radix with the help of the Angular CDK and other proven community solutions And then add the beautiful shadcn styles with primitives (and components where necessary).

You can find all UI primitives in the libs/ui folder.

Each primitive is made up off a un-styled brain library, which provides all functionality and a helm library, which adds the styles.

There's also a libs/nx folder, which contains the Nx-plugin code that allows users to add spartan/ui to their Nx workspace in a simple way.

Development with storybook

A storybook project is set up and is the primary way to develop UI components. You can run it with:

yarn storybook

At the root of each primitive's folder, e.g. libs/ui/accordion you will find a stories file, e.g, accordion.stories.ts.

Use these files to add stories and drive development of the primitives.

e2e testing

Cypress e2e testing is set up to run on the storybook. You can run it with:

yarn e2e

To add your own e2e tests add them to the apps/ui-storybook-e2e application.

Progress (30/41)

We finished porting over 30/41 UI primitives. See a more detailed breakdown here!

spartan/stack

An example application running on Supabase, Drizzle, Analog, tRPC, Tailwind, Angular, and Nx. It also serves as the documentation page introducing the stack and UI library.

Follow the directions in the official documentation to set up your own project: https://www.spartan.ng/stack/overview

Example App

In the apps folder of this repository, you can also find an example application of the spartan stack. It also serves as the documentation page for this project.

For now. The goal is to move the docs to Astro.

Follow the directions below to get it up and running:

Prerequisites

You will need yarn (or a different package manager) installed.
You will need to set up a Supabase account (it's free)
You will need NodeJs installed. The version I have working is 18.13.0.

Install Dependencies

Run yarn or yarn install to install the dependencies of this project.

Development server

Then you can run the following command:

yarn nx serve app

yarn dev

for a dev server. Navigate to http://localhost:4200/. The app will automatically reload if you change any of the source files.

Database

We use Drizzle to connect to a Supabase instance for the example app.

Add an .env file to your repo with the following contents:

Add a .env file at the root of your Nx workspace and add the connection string like so:

DATABASE_URL="postgresql://postgres:[YOUR-PASSWORD]@db.[YOUR-SUPABASE-REFERENCE-ID].supabase.co:5432/postgres?schema=public"

And make sure to run the following script in your Supabase editor to set up the necessary tables:

create table
  public.note (
    id bigserial,
    title text not null,
    content text null,
    created_at timestamp with time zone null default current_timestamp,
    constraint notes_pkey primary key (id)
  ) tablespace pg_default;

Understand this workspace

Run yarn nx graph to see a diagram of the dependencies of the projects.
