Tech stack and building procedure

passionate2023 opened this issue · comments

Hi,

I'm eager to know the following and can you pls help me

what are the technologies involved?
steps or commands to build or bundle this app to deploy in servers - windows or linux or mac?
windows throws lots of errors as many commands couldn't recognize

can you share some insights on how to buid/deploy this

thank you

Quoting the README at the front page of the repo here:

⚠️ Note: If you're reading this section to try to set up and run your own Monocle instance, I applaud your audacity, but it might not be super easy or fruitful -- Monocle's modules are pretty specific not only to my data sources, but also the way I structure those files. I won't stop you from trying to build your own search index, but be warned: it might not work, and I'm probably not going to do tech support. For this reason, this section is also written in first-person, mostly for my future reference.

As mentioned above this repo and the code is very specific to my (1) tech stack (2) personal data situation and (3) infrastructure that I run this app within (including lots of other apps that cooperate to make Monocle work). Unfortunately I don't have the capacity to help other folks set it up on their own. For that reason, I'm going to close this issue.

If you want a similar tool in your life, I can recommend the excellent Operand that my friend Morgan runs.

Operand is closed. Can you just please help with just steps alone?
