The Hyperdiv Frontend

Hyperdiv is made of a server/runtime system written in Python, and a browser client/frontend written in JS/HTML/CSS. When a browser connects to the server, the server ships the built frontend to the browser. Then the frontend and server communicate over a websocket.

This directory contains the code for the frontend.

To work on the frontend, you need a recent version of node installed. To install depedencies:

npm install

To build the frontend:

npm run build

The built files will be created in the public/build directory.

To start the development server, which watches changes to files, automatically rebuilds the frontend when files change, and reloads connected browsers:

npm run dev

Note that the frontend does not contain an index.html file. This file is generated on the Python side and served to the browser from memory. See index_page.py and main.py.
