# CompareWare
# Leptos Starter Template
CompareWare is an open-source platform for comparing tools (software, hardware, etc.) with structured, crowdsourced data. It combines **Leptos** for a modern, reactive frontend and **Nostr** for decentralized data storage.
This is a template for use with the [Leptos](https://github.com/leptos-rs/leptos) web framework and the [cargo-leptos](https://github.com/akesson/cargo-leptos) tool.
## **Features**
- **Item Management**: Add, view, and manage items with metadata and key-value tags.
- **Nostr Integration**:
- Store and share data as Nostr events.
- Authenticate users with Nostr keys.
- **Future Features**: Reviews and a Web of Trust for collaborative insights.
## Creating your template repo
If you don't have `cargo-leptos` installed you can install it with
## **Getting Started**
`cargo install cargo-leptos --locked`
### Prerequisites
- Rust (latest stable version)
- Leptos framework
Then run
### Installation
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://forge.ftt.gmbh/ryanmwangi/Compware.git
cd compareware
```
2. Run the development server:
```bash
cargo leptos serve
```
3. Open your browser at [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000)
`cargo leptos new --git leptos-rs/start`
## **Roadmap**
to generate a new project template (you will be prompted to enter a project name).
1. **Item Management** (In progress)
- Implement a form (`item_form.rs`) to allow users to add new items with metadata and key-value tags.
- Create a listing component (`items_list.rs`) to display and manage added items.
- Add backend functionality to validate and persist items using the Leptos framework.
`cd {projectname}`
2. **Review System** (To be implemented)
- Design a data model to handle reviews, including ratings, comments, and reviewer metadata.
- Build a user interface for submitting and viewing reviews linked to specific items.
- Integrate filters and sorting to display reviews based on relevance and ratings.
to go to your newly created project.
Of course, you should explore around the project structure, but the best place to start with your application code is in `src/app.rs`.
## Running your project
`cargo leptos watch`
By default, you can access your local project at `http://localhost:3000`
## Installing Additional Tools
By default, `cargo-leptos` uses `nightly` Rust, `cargo-generate`, and `sass`. If you run into any trouble, you may need to install one or more of these tools.
1. `rustup toolchain install nightly --allow-downgrade` - make sure you have Rust nightly
2. `rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown` - add the ability to compile Rust to WebAssembly
3. `cargo install cargo-generate` - install `cargo-generate` binary (should be installed automatically in future)
4. `npm install -g sass` - install `dart-sass` (should be optional in future)
## Executing a Server on a Remote Machine Without the Toolchain
After running a `cargo leptos build --release` the minimum files needed are:
1. The server binary located in `target/server/release`
2. The `site` directory and all files within located in `target/site`
Copy these files to your remote server. The directory structure should be:
```text
leptos_start
site/
```
Set the following environment variables (updating for your project as needed):
```sh
export LEPTOS_OUTPUT_NAME="leptos_start"
export LEPTOS_SITE_ROOT="site"
export LEPTOS_SITE_PKG_DIR="pkg"
export LEPTOS_SITE_ADDR="127.0.0.1:3000"
export LEPTOS_RELOAD_PORT="3001"
```
Finally, run the server binary.
## Notes about CSR and Trunk:
Although it is not recommended, you can also run your project without server integration using the feature `csr` and `trunk serve`:
`trunk serve --open --features csr`
This may be useful for integrating external tools which require a static site, e.g. `tauri`.
## Licensing
This template itself is released under the Unlicense. You should replace the LICENSE for your own application with an appropriate license if you plan to release it publicly.
3. **Nostr Integration** (To be integrated)
- Use Nostr events for decentralized data storage, mapping item data to specific Nostr event types.
- Authenticate users through their Nostr keys for secure and decentralized access.
- Enable data sharing and synchronization with Nostr-compatible clients.
