Development setup

Prerequisites

• npm i -g pnpm if you don't already have PNPM installed

Initialising

• clone this repo
• pnpm i

Running for development

• Simply pnpm run dev and navigate to localhost:5000.
• By default, the server will only respond to requests from localhost. To allow connections from other computers, edit the sirv commands in package.json to include the option --host 0.0.0.0.

Building and running in production mode

To create an optimised version of the app:

npm run build

You can run the newly built app with npm run start. This uses sirv, which is included in your package.json's dependencies so that the app will work when you deploy to platforms like Heroku.

Deploying to the web

With Vercel

Install vercel if you haven't already:

npm install -g vercel

Then, from within your project folder:

cd public
vercel deploy --name my-project

With surge

Install surge if you haven't already:

npm install -g surge

Then, from within your project folder:

npm run build
surge public my-project.surge.sh

Framework

• UI components authored with Svelte
  • Forms with Svelte Formup & Yup schema validation
  • App-level routing with Routve
  • Compiled to other runtimes via Svelte UCC
• API connections through Apollo GraphQL
  • Pluggable backends via @vf-ui/graphql-client-* modules
