# Developing Cinny
> [!TIP]
> We recommend using a version manager as versions change very quickly.
> You will likely need to switch between multiple Node.js versions based
> on the needs of different projects you're working on. [NVM-windows]
> on Windows and [nvm] on Linux/macOS are pretty good choices. Recommended
> nodejs version is Krypton LTS (v24.13.1).

[nvm]: https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm
Execute the following commands to start a development server:
```sh
npm ci # Installs all dependencies
npm start # Serve a development version
```
To build the app:
```sh
npm run build # Compiles the app into the dist/ directory
```
To commit changes:
```sh
npm run commit
```
## Running with Docker
This repository includes a Dockerfile, which builds the application from
source and serves it with Nginx on port 80. To use this locally, you can
build the container like so:
```
docker build -t cinny:latest .
```
You can then run the container you've built with a command similar to this:
```
docker run -p 8080:80 cinny:latest
```
This will forward your `localhost` port 8080 to the container's port 80.
You can visit the app in your browser by navigating to `http://localhost:8080`.
## Code formatting
We use [ESLint](https://eslint.org/) for clean and stylistically
