Desmos golfing website for submitting desmos golf challenges.

Desmos Golf Site

The source code for the Desmos Code Golf Site (both server and client).

Server Setup

Before running the server, you have to set up server/.env with an admin passcode that gives you write access to the challenge list so you can easily create new challenges. It should go without saying, but don't reuse an existing password for this, because it's both stored and transmitted in plaintext (though it's theoretically secure over HTTPS).

For example, to get the password "admin", run echo 'admin_pass=admin' > server/.env. Of course, you can also edit the file directly. There's other options too. The default settings are hostname=localhost and port=80, but you can change it by e.g. adding a line port=8080.

Build & Run

If you just want to get this thing running, run the init script with node init.mjs in the root directory of this project.

Build & Run for Development

If you want to get this running and also have it automatically watch and rebuild, run node init.mjs dev.

But what if I want to run only the server or only the client for some reason?

Server Setup

cd server
npm i
npm run dev
# close after compiling or open new terminal
npm start

Client Setup

cd client/sandbox
npm i
npm run build
