blueskim

Description

Blueskim is full-stack, open-source chat application inspired by Discord, with a strong emphasis on clean architecture and maintainable code. Iterated through multiple rewrites to refine structure, resulting in a well-organized scalable codebase with a polished vertical slice of the frontend. The development was stopped before the backend was properly implemented and other frontend pages were implemented due to very time-intensive nature of keeping near-perfect clean codebase without any minor or major defects.

Developing

In first terminal:

cd frontend
pnpm install
pnpm dev

In second terminal:

cd backend
cargo r

In third terminal:

cd nginx
nginx -p . -c nginx.conf

# on nginx config change
nginx -p . -c nginx.conf -s reload

# shutdown
nginx -p . -c nginx.conf -s quit
