WEBSITE SOURCE CODE
-------------------
This is the source code for the awesome-privacy website, which is deployed at
https://awesome-privacy.xyz.
================================================================================
DEVELOPMENT SETUP
-----------------
To get started, you'll need Node and Git installed.
Then run the following commands:
1. Clone the repo
git clone git@github.com:Lissy93/awesome-privacy.git
2. Navigate into it
cd awesome-privacy/web

================================================================================
DEPLOYMENT
----------
You have several options for deploying your own instance of Awesome Privacy
Option 1) Run `yarn build`, and copy the contents of `dist` to any web server/ CDN
Option 2) Fork the repo and import it to a provider of your choice (Netlify or Vercel)
Option 3) Use the included Dockerfile to build and run the application on any server
================================================================================
TECHNOLOGY
----------
The website is built with Astro, and statically generated at build-time.
This means that changes to the raw data will not be reflected until the site is rebuilt.
Dynamic elems (search + comments) are built as Svelte islands, and rehydrated at runtime.
Most the code is written in Typescript. We're not using a CSS library, just plain SASS.
The site also uses these dependencies:
- fuse.js for fuzzy search
- js-yaml for parsing YAML
- marked for markdown rendering
- fontawesome for iconography
================================================================================

All data relating to software/apps/services used on the website is pulled from:
