Developer Information

Developed by Sebastian Sole, Julian Grande and Magnus Rødseth.

Documentation

Please read the docs documentation.

Note that we have extracted the section about universal design, web accessibility and sustainable development from the docs documentation and placed in a separate file: docs/ACCESSIBILITY.md.

Tech stack and libraries

frontend

  • React
  • TypeScript
  • Mantine, a library with UI components and useful hooks
  • Zod Schema Validation
  • Apollo GraphQL client
  • Apollo global state management
  • Jest
  • JSON Web Token, for handling the user session
  • React Testing Library
  • Cypress, for end-to-end testing

backend

  • Express, a web server
  • TypeScript
  • GraphQL
  • JSON Web Token, for handling the user session
  • Prisma Client, a client for interacting with the PostgreSQL database
  • Rollup, for transpiling and bundling the application to JavaScript

Database

  • PostgreSQL, a relational database running locally using docker-compose

Running the application

Running frontend

# Navigate to the frontend directory
cd frontend

# Install dependencies
npm i

# Start application
npm start

Running backend

# Navigate to the backend directory
cd backend

# Install dependencies
npm i

# Start development database (Local PostgreSQL instance)
docker-compose up -d

# Start application in development mode
npm run dev

# or

# Compile and start application in production mode
npm start

Connecting to the database

Ensure you have a .env file located in the backend/.env directory with the following contents:

PORT=8081
DATABASE_URL="postgresql://myuser:mypassword@localhost:5432/mydatabase"

The .env file is not part of the .gitignore, as it is not sensitive information in this project, and other students require access to the database in order to run it locally.

Please see backend/package.json for more information of the available scripts regarding the database.

Testing the application

This part assumes that all dependencies are installed. The end-to-end tests assume that the frontend is running, as it attempts to connect to it before running the end-to-end tests.

Testing frontend

# Navigate to the frontend directory
cd frontend

# Run unit tests and component tests
npm test

# Run E2E tests in browser
npm run test:e2e

# or

# Run E2E tests headless
npm run test:e2e:ci
