## Building the server binary from source

1. Install [bun](https://bun.sh) for building the bundled web client.

1. Install [rustup](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install).

1. Install the latest stable rust toolchain with `rustup toolchain install stable`.

1. Clone the project locally with `git clone [email protected]:alecdwm/webtron.git`.

1. Change to the cloned directory with `cd webtron`.

1. Build the project with `cargo build --release`.

The server binary will be located at `target/release/webtron`.

## Running the server in development

1. Install [cargo-watch](https://github.com/passcod/cargo-watch).

1. Clone the project locally with `git clone [email protected]:alecdwm/webtron.git`.

1. Change to the cloned directory with `cd webtron`.

1. Run the server (and automatically restart it on code changes) with `cargo watch -i 'client/**' -x fmt -x run`.

   - If you don't have `cargo-watch`, you can install it with `cargo install cargo-watch`

1. In another terminal, change to the client subdirectory with `cd webtron/client`.

1. Run the client development server with `bun dev`.

The web client will be available at [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000).
