• yarn start — Launches the app in development mode on http://localhost:3000
• yarn update-schema — Update GraphQL API schema by running an introspection query
• yarn relay — Updates GraphQL fragments used in the code
• yarn build — Compiles and bundles the app for deployment
• yarn lint — Validate code using ESLint
• yarn tsc — Validate code using TypeScript compiler
• yarn test — Run unit tests with Jest, Supertest
• yarn deploy — Deploys the app to Cloudflare

How to Deploy

Ensure that client-side application settings for test (QA) and prod (production) environments are up-to-date found in the config.ts file, as well as Cloudflare account credentials found in the .env file:

# Cloudflare
# https://dash.cloudflare.com/
# https://developers.cloudflare.com/api/tokens/create
CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID=
CLOUDFLARE_ZONE_ID=
CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=

Compile and deploy the app by running:

$ yarn build
$ yarn deploy [--env #0]

Where --env argument is the target environment, e.g. yarn deploy --env=prod.

How to Update

• yarn set version latest — Bump Yarn to the latest version
• yarn upgrade-interactive — Update Node.js modules (dependencies)
