The Full Stack

The Full Stack platform consists of a React (NextJS) webapp that connects to many different microservices, such as a projects service, profile service, search service, connections service etc. to name a few. There are also integrations with third parties such as Firebase (for auth), Firestore, Knock (notifications) and many cloud functions. Currently, we have made the webapp open source. We are in the process of creating The Full Stack API platform for developers to build their own apps on top of The Full Stack API.

The Full Stack is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.

Get running locally

1. Clone this repo

2. Rename the .env.sample to .env

3. Update configurations in .env (Note: we are working on sandbox env VARS to run a local env)

4. Install the dependencies:

npm install

4. Run the development server:

npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages. When deployed to Vercel, these are run as Serverless functions.

Production Deployment

This app is deployed to the Vercel Platform via GitHub.

Removing bloat

Run the following command to scan the repo for unused componenets, routes, etc. and output resulting files that can be removed. Whilst its relatively safe, review the outputted list is worth a quick double check.

node scripts/detect-unused.js
