This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

Env vars are not necessary to run the react app for local development, but you can overrride the API server scheme, host and port in a .env file like so:

REACT_APP_API_SCHEMD=https
REACT_APP_API_HOST=someurl
REACT_APP_API_PORT=4000

In the project directory, you can run:

Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!

See the section about deployment for more information.

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!

If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.

Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.

You don’t have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.

You can learn more in the Create React App documentation.

Apollo Client Docs: https://www.apollographql.com/docs/react/

Client side GraphQL operations are defined at: frontend/src/graphql/operations.ts. After adding or changing those defs, run npm run gql in frontend to generate new typescript definitions and hooks boilerplate for the frontend. See frontend/src/pages/AddUser.tsx for example uses of Query and Mutation hooks usage.

Tailwind docs: https://tailwindcss.com/docs

Tailwind is a nice css utility library that make most styling trivial without writing any CSS and helps us prevent CSS sprawl. See examples:

<div class="container mx-auto px-4">
  <!-- ... -->
</div>

<div class="flex ...">
  <div class="flex-grow w-16 h-16 ...">
    <!-- This item will grow or shrink as needed -->
  </div>
  <div class="flex-shrink w-64 h-16 ...">
    <!-- This item will shrink -->
  </div>
  <div class="flex-grow w-16 h-16 ...">
    <!-- This item will grow or shrink as needed -->
  </div>
</div>

Tailwind styles are imported here frontend/src/styles/index.css and we have a watcher that will regenerate frontend/src/styles/tailwind.css whenever we change style information. That files is added to our app at frontend/src/index.tsx:3.

Create React App docs: https://create-react-app.dev/

We use Facebook's Create React App util. You don't really have to know anything about it for most use cases here. But it's important to know if you are changing any configs or incorporating new libs that don't work out of the box with it. It's pretty slow, but very widely used. If you find it too slow for development, let me know and I can rip it out in favor of something faster.
