Run docker-compose up to start the app.
Open your web browser and go to http://localhost:3000 to view the app.
the backend admin ui is at http://localhost:8080/_/
## Writing a blog post
To write a blog post, follow these steps:
Create a new Markdown file in the blogposts directory. The name of the file will be used as the URL for the blog post.
Add your blog post content in Markdown format to the file.
Add a title attribute to the top of the file to give your blog post a title.
Add any other metadata attributes you want to the top of the file, such as author, date, or tags.
Save the file and commit it to the repository.
Your blog post will now be available at http://localhost:3000/posts/.
## User authentication
This blog includes user authentication using Passport.js. To log in, click the "Log in" button in the navigation bar and enter your credentials. To log out, click the "Log out" button.
## Chat function
This blog includes a working chat function that allows users to chat with each other in real-time. To use the chat function, click the "Chat" button in the navigation bar. You can enter a message in the chat box and hit enter to send it. Other users will be able to see your message and respond.
## PocketBase integration
This blog uses PocketBase to store all the data for the blog, including blog posts, user information, and chat messages. The PocketBase executable is included in the pocketbase directory of the repository, and is started automatically when you run docker-compose up.
## Styling
This blog uses Tailwind CSS and DaisyUI for styling. To customize the styling, you can edit the CSS files in the public directory.
## Gun.js integration
In the future, this blog may include integration with Gun.js for decentralized data storage. There are currently some files related to Gun.js in the repository, but they are deactivated.
