Development

Note

I use bun, but feel free to use any npm compatible-ish package manager

1. Install the dependencies with bun i (in backend & frontend folder)
2. Run the frontend in frontend with bun run dev
3. Run the server in backend with bun run watch

📈 Metrics

The server enables access to performance metrics using Prometheus. They are exposed by default on the /metrics endpoint.

Backend Environment variables

var	Description
PORT	Webserver port, defaults to 8080
PORT_METRICS	Prometheus metrics port, defaults to 9090 and should not be the same as PORT
NO_METRICS	Disables metrics
