Siteforge

This project is a React + TypeScript portfolio app built with Vite.

It is designed to showcase two categories of work:

• Websites
• Apps

The app now supports:

• Dynamic cards generated from a project data source
• Built vs Hosted filters
• A dedicated About page route for each project
• An admin editor route to update cards and About pages
• A per-project README summary block on each project page
• Embedded Spotify podcast player on the home section

Run locally

npm install
npm run dev:full

dev:full starts both:

• Vite frontend (http://localhost:5173)
• Admin content API (http://localhost:4173)

Build for production

npm run build

Run in container

Pull image directly:

docker pull ghcr.io/nmemmert/siteforge:latest
docker run -d --name siteforge-app -p 4173:4173 -v ./data:/app/data ghcr.io/nmemmert/siteforge:latest

Run with Docker Compose:

docker compose pull
docker compose up -d

Admin auth:

• Set ADMIN_PASSWORD on the server/container to protect /admin and admin stats/maintenance endpoints.
• Without ADMIN_PASSWORD, admin login is disabled until configured.

The app will be available at http://localhost:4173.

Persistent admin saves:

• Admin updates are written to data/admin-content.json.
• Built-in page hit stats are written to data/hit-stats.json.
• Detailed visitor analytics are written to data/visitor-stats.json.
• Backup snapshots are written to data/backups/.
• docker-compose.yml mounts ./data into the container at /app/data.
• This keeps all admin-managed data after container restarts/rebuilds/updates.

Where to edit content

• Project domain data and ownership: src/data/projects.ts
• Portfolio rendering logic: src/App.tsx
• Portfolio UI styles: src/App.css
• Global theme variables: src/index.css

Routes

• Portfolio home: /
• Project details: /projects/:slug
• Admin editor: /admin

Admin editing

• Open /admin to edit project card and featured-page content.
• Use Global Settings to update theme, home headers, and quick tips.
• Use Project Settings to update project-specific fields and README URL.
• Use Create new entry to add a new project directly from Admin.
• Enter a URL and click Scan URL metadata to auto-fill title, summary, domain, category, and icon when available.
• Click Save project to apply updates instantly.
• Saved edits are written to data/admin-content.json through the API server.
• Built-in stats in /admin include page hits plus visitor details (IP, country/state/county/city, returning visitors, and recent visitor log).
• Site Stats in /admin includes a Bible Questions inbox sourced from contact form submissions marked as Bible Question.
• Analytics cookies are consent-based. Visitors can accept or decline tracking from the site banner.
• Admin now includes maintenance actions: Export JSON, Backup Now, Prune Old Data, and Clear Analytics.
• Admin also supports restoring from a backup snapshot from /admin.
• The server creates startup + daily backup snapshots and retains recent backups automatically.
• Use the Theme dropdown to switch between Sandstone, Ocean, Midnight, Forest, and Sunset.
• Use Remove project to delete the selected project from your local Admin data.
• Use Reset project or Reset all to restore defaults from src/data/projects.ts.

Scan notes:

• URL scanning is best-effort and depends on site accessibility.
• Some sites block direct scanning; Admin falls back to a proxy scan path when possible.
• Always review scanned fields before saving.

Deployment note:

• To keep Admin saves working on the internet, deploy with the Node API (server.js) and writable server storage for data/admin-content.json.

Useful container commands:

docker compose logs -f
docker compose down

Update to latest image:

docker compose pull
docker compose up -d

Notes

• The current project cards are sample placeholders.
• Most metadata was scanned from live pages.
• Skywatch currently uses a manual fallback description due to a 401 response during automated scan.
