🔧 Final Step Required

The Rust backend needs to be built. Run this in your terminal:

cd /Users/dorian/Projects/archy
./complete-setup.sh

This will:

1. Verify Rust installation
2. Build the backend (takes a few minutes)
3. Show you next steps

🚀 How to Start the Project

Option 1: Full Stack (After building backend)

Terminal 1 - Backend:

cd /Users/dorian/Projects/archy/core
cargo run --bin archipelago

Terminal 2 - Frontend:

cd /Users/dorian/Projects/archy/neode-ui
npm run dev

Open: http://localhost:8100

Option 2: Mock Backend (Works Now!)

You can start the frontend with a mock backend immediately:

cd /Users/dorian/Projects/archy/neode-ui
npm run dev:mock

Open: http://localhost:8100

Option 3: Interactive Script

cd /Users/dorian/Projects/archy
./scripts/dev-start.sh

Choose option 1 for mock backend (fastest).

📋 What's Running

• PostgreSQL - Running on port 5432 (auto-starts on boot)
• Podman Machine - Running (for containers)

🔍 Verify Installation

Run this to check everything:

cd /Users/dorian/Projects/archy
./verify-install.sh

📚 Documentation

• GETTING_STARTED.md - Quick start guide
• SETUP_GUIDE.md - Detailed setup
• QUICK_REFERENCE.md - Command reference
• README.md - Project overview

⚡ Quick Commands

# Complete setup (build backend)
./complete-setup.sh

# Start with mock backend (fastest)
cd neode-ui && npm run dev:mock

# Check installation status
./verify-install.sh

# Start PostgreSQL
brew services start postgresql@15

# Start Podman machine
podman machine start

🎯 Next Steps

1. Build the backend:

   ./complete-setup.sh
   

2. Or try the UI immediately:

   cd neode-ui
   npm run dev:mock
   

3. Then explore the docs:

   • Read GETTING_STARTED.md
   • Check out the apps in /apps
   • Build containerized apps with cd apps && ./build.sh

💡 Notes

• Rust was installed but needs the backend built
• All Node.js dependencies are ready
• Some apps have security vulnerabilities (run npm audit to see)
• Podman is configured in rootless mode (more secure)
• PostgreSQL is running as a background service

🐛 If Something Goes Wrong

1. Run ./verify-install.sh
2. Check services:
   • PostgreSQL: brew services list
   • Podman: podman machine list
3. Read SETUP_GUIDE.md for troubleshooting

You're almost ready! Just run ./complete-setup.sh to build the backend, or start the mock backend right away! 🚀
