## Quickstart

To run the website locally simply execute the following commands:

```shell
# install all dependencies
$ npm i
# run in development mode. this will start the dev server at localhost:5173
$ npm run dev
```

## Building

To build the website for production, use the following command:

```shell
# install all dependencies
$ npm i
# build for production. will be available in the build/ directory
$ npm run build
# run the production build.
# this will start the server at 0.0.0.0:3000, you can customize this and various other behaviors by defining environment variables. see the configuration section below for more information
$ node build/index.js
# same as 'node build/index.js' above but this loads variables from a .env file into the environment
$ node -r dotenv/config build/index.js
```

## Configuration

Configurations can be done with env variables
