This repository contains a full-stack TypeScript application consisting of a NestJS backend and an Angular frontend. You have two options for using this repository: Gitpod (recommended) or local (will require up to 60 minutes of set-up time).

You can sign up for a free Gitpod account here: https://www.gitpod.io/ using your GitHub account. After you sign up, you can open the following link to launch your environment: https://www.gitpod.io/#https://github.com/trilogy-group/ws-eng-conduit-ai-assessment/

Once the environment spins up, you'll have a browser-based VSCode at your disposal. Two terminal tasks are launched automatically:

• "Seed": which waits for the backend to be available and runs the database seed.
• "App": which installs dependencies and starts both backend and frontend.

In Gitpod, "localhost" refers to the remote machine. All "localhost" ports are exposed to a Workspace-specific URL, which is automatically opened if you press any localhost link from the Gitpod terminal, output pane, editor, etc. To open the UI, you can press the https://localhost:4200/ link in the App terminal (printed once the Angular app spins up) or, alternatively, you can type gp url 4200 in a new terminal to find the URL manually.

If you are inactive for a while, your Workspace will be "paused". All file changes that you have made to the repository will be saved. You can resume it by refreshing the link or by going here: https://gitpod.io/workspaces.

Note that some Firefox users might face a "Security Error" when opening Gitpod; see this issue for details and workarounds.

• You can access the UI at https://localhost:4200 and log in with [email protected] / password.
• You can also find the backend API spec at https://localhost:3000/docs.
• You can run nx commands by running npm run nx -- <command here>, e.g., npm run nx -- g @nx/angular:library something.

Note that while tests are essential to any real-life project, this repository does NOT include tests to keep the assessments short. Candidates are not required to write new tests.

If the assessment you are working on asks for a git patch, you must export a git diff of your changes by running the ./create-patch.sh script provided in this repository. This will create a patch in the current folder. Open it to ensure that all your changes are present (it's just a text file). On Gitpod, you can right-click to download it.
