# Example: Screenshot app

This repository demonstrates some essential concept of the [UIX](https://uix.unyt.org) framework such as [Realm Imports](https://unyt.org/glossary#realm-import) and [Web components](https://unyt.org/glossary#web-components) using the example of a **website screenshot app**.

The repository includes persistent file storage and implements [front-end](https://unyt.org/glossary#front-end).

## Installation
1. Install the **UIX command line tool** following the [Getting Started](https://docs.unyt.org/manual/uix/getting-started#the-uix-command-line-tool) guide in our documentation.

2. Clone this repository to your local machine:

```bash
$ git clone https://github.com/unyt-org/example-website-screenshot.git
```
3. Run the project local
```bash
$ uix --port 8000
```
4. Navigate to your favourite web browser and open http://localhost:8000 to see everything in action.

## Structure
This diagram outlines the UIX default project structure.
We split our code base in [back-end](https://unyt.org/glossary#back-end), [front-end](https://unyt.org/glossary#front-end), and commons folder.

## Preview

## Explanation
### Persistent Storage of Files
To provide a seamless experience, our screenshot app demonstrates how to persistently store files. This means that even if the application is restarted, previous screenshots will be stored.

### File Provider
To access files the back-end exposes a route via FileProvider to serve static files.
