# Focalboard
[![Focalboard](website/site/static/img/hero.jpg)](https://www.focalboard.com)
[Focalboard](https://www.focalboard.com) is an open source project management app for individuals and teams. It comes in two editions:
* **Personal Desktop**: A stand-alone desktop app for your todos and personal projects
* **Personal Server**: A self-hosted server for your team to collaborate
The same server binary powers both editions.
## Building the server
First, install dependencies:
* Go 1.15.2
```
make prebuild
make
```
The server defaults to using SQLite as the store, but can be configured to use Postgres:
* In config.json
* Set dbtype to "postgres"
* Set dbconfig to the connection string (which you can copy from dbconfig_postgres)
* Create a new "focalboard" database with psql
* Restart the server
## Running and testing the server
To start the server, run `./bin/focalboard-server`
Server settings are in config.json.
Open a browser to [http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000) to start.
## Building and running standalone desktop apps
You can build standalone apps that package the server to run locally against SQLite:
* Mac:
* `make mac-app`
* run `mac/dist/Focalboard.app`
* *Requires: macOS Catalina (10.15)+, Xcode 12.*
* Linux:
* Install webgtk dependencies
* `sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev`
* `sudo apt-get install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev`
* `make linux-app`
* run `linux/dist/focalboard-app`
* *Tested with: Ubuntu 18.04*
* Windows
* Open a git-bash prompt
* `make win-app`
* run `win/dist/focalboard.exe`
* *Requires: Windows 10*
* *Tested with: git bash*
Cross-compilation currently isn't fully supported, so please build on the appropriate platform. Refer to the GitHub Actions workflows (build-mac.yml, build-win.yml, build-ubuntu.yml) for the detailed list of steps on each platform.
## Unit tests
Before checking-in commits, run: `make ci`, which is simlar to the ci.yml workflow and includes:
* Server unit tests: `make server-test`
* Webapp eslint: `cd webapp; npm run check`
* Webapp unit tests: `cd webapp; npm run test`
* Webapp UI tests: `cd webapp; npm run cypress:ci`
