CommentApp

This is a full-stack, backend-focused comment application designed to demonstrate clean architecture, database design, and DevOps practices.

The entire application is containerized and can be run with a single command.

Tech Stack

• Backend: NestJS, TypeScript
• Frontend: React, TypeScript
• Database: PostgreSQL
• Containerization: Docker & Docker Compose

Prerequisites

• Docker
• Docker Compose

Running the Application

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/muzzlol/commentapp.git
   cd commentapp

2. Start the entire application stack:

   docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yaml up --build

The --build flag is recommended for the first run to ensure the Docker images are built from the latest source code.
