‼️ READ: THIS IS STILL IN DEVELOPMENT

This is still in early development. Everything you see here may - and likely will - be tweaked or changed further before release.

Revolt Frontend

This repository contains the code for Revolt's new frontend, built with Solid.js.

You can find the code style guidelines here.

Setup locally

# clone the repository
git clone --recursive https://github.com/revoltchat/frontend client
cd client

# update submodules if you pull new changes
# git submodule init && git submodule update

# install all packages
pnpm i

# build deps:
pnpm build:deps

# or build a specific dep (e.g. revolt.js updates):
# pnpm --filter revolt.js run build

# run dev server
pnpm dev

Finally, navigate to http://local.revolt.chat:5173.

Build client

# install packages
pnpm i

# build everything
pnpm build:all

Pulling in Revolt's assets

If you want to pull in Revolt brand assets after pulling, run the following:

# update the assets
git -c submodule."packages/client/assets".update=checkout submodule update --init packages/client/assets

You can switch back to the fallback assets by running deinit and continuing as normal:

# deinit submodule which clears directory
git submodule deinit packages/client/assets

Faster iteration with Revolt.js

To make it easier to work with revolt.js, you may want to temporarily make this change:

# packages/revolt.js/package.json
-  "module": "lib/esm/index.js",
+  "module": "src/index.ts",

Any edits to the revolt.js codebase will immediately be reflected while developing.

Using pnpm

Add a new package to a workspace:

pnpm add solid-hcaptcha --filter @revolt/auth
