🏁 Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.

This project is currently developed on macOS, and so all instructions are written as such. They will be updated overtime, or if you want to update them sooner open a PR!

COMING SOON

🔧 Running the tests

Running tests is as running the following:

make test

Expanding the ESLint configuration

If you are developing a production application, we recommend updating the configuration to enable type aware lint rules:

• Configure the top-level parserOptions property like this:

export default {
  // other rules...
  parserOptions: {
    ecmaVersion: 'latest',
    sourceType: 'module',
    project: ['./tsconfig.json', './tsconfig.node.json'],
    tsconfigRootDir: __dirname,
  },
}

• Replace plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended to plugin:@typescript-eslint/recommended-type-checked or plugin:@typescript-eslint/strict-type-checked
• Optionally add plugin:@typescript-eslint/stylistic-type-checked
• Install eslint-plugin-react and add plugin:react/recommended & plugin:react/jsx-runtime to the extends list

🎉 Acknowledgements

• Stack inspiration came from Monzo, as this is what they listed in a job opening, and I wanted to build something that used the same stack
• Hat tip to Christian Selig for their apollo-backend repository; a fantastic example of a production-ready server written in Go
• Thanks to my friend Connor O'Brien for helping me come up with a silly name for it, after all, you can't truly start a project until you know the domain exists and the SEO isn't already saturated, right? right??
• Another thanks to my talented friend Dylan Thomas for the adorable cat logo!
