Stride is a todo application built using ASP.NET Core for the backend and React for the frontend. To explore the entire repository and potentially build it yourself, head over to this repository: github.com/nayvok-raindance/Stride.

The easiest way to build Stride is with Docker. Simply run docker compose up to build the application. However, this won't display anything on your local machine.

Before of building it, you should first install certificates on your local machine. Why? Because.

With Visual Studio

In case if you have Visual Studio installed, you can just open it and install certificate from it. If you did it, go to Launching Docker Compose section.

Without Visual Studio

You can configure certificates using dotnet dev-certs tool. To do it, please follow official documentation. You'll have to add required params, like ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__Password and ASPNETCORE_Kestrel__Certificates__Default__Path in your docker compose up command.

Launching Docker Compose

To access the backend and Swagger UI from your local PC, follow these instructions:

Linux & macOS:

export HTTP_PORT=your_port
export HTTPS_PORT=your_port
docker compose up

Windows (CMD):

set HTTP_PORT=your_port
set HTTPS_PORT=your_port
docker compose up

Windows (PowerShell):

$env:HTTP_PORT="your_port"
$env:HTTP_PORT="your_port"
docker compose up

Without Docker:

If you don't have Docker installed, you can still run Stride. Set your connection string to your PostgreSQL database as an environment variable named ConnectionStrings__DefaultConnection, either for your user or your entire computer. Then, with .NET 8.0 installed, run the application from the root repository directory using dotnet run src/Web/Web.csproj. The exposed port will be shown in the output, starting with info: Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime[14].

Example output:

info: Microsoft.Hosting.Lifetime[14]
  Now listening on: http://localhost:5432

That's all you need to get started with Stride!

• Built with muscle: Uncle Bob's Clean Architecture principles keep things organized and flexible, like a well-equipped gym where every piece of equipment has its place and purpose.
• Monolithic but mighty: Sure, it's not a microservices dance party, but Stride's one-piece design delivers seamless performance and consistency.
• Tech symphony: NSwag conducts the API orchestra, PostgreSQL and Asp.Identity keep the data vault secure, and MediatoR acts as the baton, ensuring smooth communication between frontend and backend.
