Right Now

This is an offline-first desktop app for tracking todos with timers.

Here Now

Tentative plans for "Here Now".

Getting started

Install watchexec for watch commands like cargo xtask dev and cargo xtask web-build --watch.

cargo install watchexec-cli

Get all the submodules (we have several forks with smal tweaks so we can more easily upstream fixes as we build)

git submodule update --recursive --init

Install node (I recommend using nvm) and then install the npm dependencies (these are for tailwind intellisense, prettier, and for a special launch-editor function from Jaeger).

npm install

Install deno (installation). Deno is used for code generation and for as many non-cargo scripting things as we can manage, since it's much easier to maintain security of deno scripts than node scripts.

Using Jaeger

Jaeger is a way for us to look at what's happening inside our application based on it's tracing spans. This tooling greatly improves our ability to understand what happened and what is taking a long time to perform.

See a recorded Loom: "2023-08-02 Here-Now Dev Tools with Jaeger UI"

Using Jaeger locally

Install jaeger-all-in-one by adding the binary from releases to your PATH.

cargo xtask jaeger # in one terminal
# right now
cargo xtask rn dev # in the other
# here now
cargo xtask dev-server # in the other
cargo xtask dev-desktop # in the other

Using Jaeger in docker.

cargo xtask jaeger --docker # in one terminal
# right now
cargo xtask rn dev # in the other
# here now
cargo xtask dev-server # in the other
cargo xtask dev-desktop # in the other

Codebase maintenance

Tools for maintaining tidyness in the codebase.

  • xtask: all codebase commands go through cargo xtask ... and those go to this executable. This allows us to write the majority of our code in Rust and cross-platform, including codebase management code. See matklad/cargo-xtask.
  • workspace-hack: A crate maintained by hakari, updated by the cargo xtask hakari command.
