(One time) To run the frontend dev server, you'll need to install the node dependencies in the app module.

$ cd modules/app
$ npm i

Once the dependencies are installed, in a terminal window, run

$ sbt '~app/fastLinkJS'

to start the incremental compiler. This will listen for changes to source files in the app and common modules, and re-build the ES/JS module for the vite project.

In another terminal window, run

$ npm run dev

to start the vite dev server, which will listen for changes to the files generated from the sbt task and automatically reload the page as updates are made.

(One time) To run the backend/api server, you'll need to create an application.conf file under src/main/resources in the server module. See application.conf.example to see what needs to be set.

To set up a Postgres/CockroachDB instance with the right tables, you can use the script in sql/init.sql.

Once you have the config file set up, run

$ sbt 'server/runMain co.beautyBard.Main'

to start the server.
