BlogPop

A simple blogging platform built with Next.js, shadcn/ui and Tailwind CSS.

Bun/Node Setup

1. Clone repository

   git clone https://git.pontusmail.org/abocn/blogpop.git
   cd blogpop
   

2. Install dependencies and copy files

   Frontend:

   npm install # npm
   bun install # or bun
   

   Backend:

   cd server/
   npm install # bun is not suggested
   

   Copy example .env:

   cp .env.example .env
   nano .env # edit if you desire
   

3. Start server

   Starting a dev server with Node or Bun requires two terminals. One will output the log files for the backend, and the other will output the log files for the frontend.

   Start a dev server:

   bun dev # Terminal 1
   cd server/ # Terminal 2
   bun index.js # Terminal 2
   

   OR

   npm run dev # Terminal 1
   cd server/ # Terminal 2
   node index.js # Terminal 2
   

   Whichever option you selected, your frontend will be served on port 3000 by default, though you can change that in your .env file. The API will be accessible on 3001.

   Start production server:

   Starting a production server with Node or Bun will also require two terminals. One will output the log files for the backend, and the other will output the log files for the frontend.

   bun run build # Terminal 1
   bun start # Terminal 1
   cd server/ # Terminal 2
   node index.js # Terminal 2
   

   OR

   bun run build # Terminal 1
   bun start # Terminal 1
   cd server/ # Terminal 2
   node index.js # Terminal 2
   

   Whichever option you selected, your frontend will be served on port 3000 by default, though you can change that in your .env file. The API will be accessible on 3001.
