WIP web frontend for [synapse](https://github.com/Luminarys/synapse).
Web frontend for [synapse](https://github.com/Luminarys/synapse).

I really mean it when I say "WIP" here. There's only a few people that I want
bug reports from right now and they know who they are.
A hosted instance is available at https://web.synapse-bt.org.
## Usage
Run synapse on localhost with the default RPC port.
## Installation
```shell
$ git submodule update --init --recursive
$ npm install
$ npm start
git submodule update --init --recursive
npm install
npm start
```
Go to http://localhost:3000
At this point you can navigate to http://localhost:3000 to make sure everything
worked. At this point your configuration should be suitable for local
development. For a production installation, press Ctrl-C and continue:
```shell
npm run build:production
```
Serve `index.html` and the `dist/` directory as static content on your web
server. You'll need to serve index.html for any route that would otherwise 404.
Here's an example nginx configuration:
```nginx
server {
server_name web.synapse-bt.org;
listen 80;
location / {
root /var/www/path/to/site;
try_files $uri /index.html;
}
location /dist {
root /var/www/path/to/site/dist;
}
}
```
