Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20.19+ or 22.12+ (required for Vite 7 and Firebase 12) - Check with node --version
• npm or yarn
• Firebase account and project
• Supabase account and project (not currently used in codebase)

Installation

1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependencies:

npm install

3. Create a .env file based on .env.example and fill in your Firebase credentials:

# Firebase Configuration
VITE_FIREBASE_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
VITE_FIREBASE_AUTH_DOMAIN=your_project.firebaseapp.com
VITE_FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID=your_project_id
VITE_FIREBASE_STORAGE_BUCKET=your_project.appspot.com
VITE_FIREBASE_MESSAGING_SENDER_ID=your_sender_id
VITE_FIREBASE_APP_ID=your_app_id
VITE_FIREBASE_MEASUREMENT_ID=G-XXXXXXXXXX

Note: These values come from Firebase Console > Project Settings > General

Development

Run the development server:

npm run dev

Build for production:

npm run build

Preview production build:

npm run preview

Note: Ensure you're using Node.js 20.19+ or 22.12+. Check with node --version

Verification

Run all verification checks before committing:

npm run verify

This runs TypeScript type checking, linting, and production build.

Run individual checks:

# Type checking
npm run tsc

# Linting
npm run lint

# Production build
npm run build

# Formatting check (placeholder - Prettier not configured)
npm run format:check

# Test coverage (placeholder - No test framework configured) 
npm run test:coverage

Note: The format:check and test:coverage scripts are temporary placeholders. The project currently does not have Prettier for code formatting or a test framework (such as Vitest) configured. These will be added in future updates.

Testing

Currently, there are no automated tests in the codebase. However, the CI workflow includes runtime error checking using Playwright to catch any JavaScript runtime errors during page load.

For comprehensive testing, manual testing should be performed using the TESTING_CHECKLIST.md file after major updates.

Future improvements should include adding Vitest for unit testing and React Testing Library for component testing.

Known Issues

Several dependencies were manually updated beyond the recommended versions in the migration guide:

• React Router v7 (recommended v6) - potential breaking changes with import paths and future flags
• recharts v3 (recommended v2) - potential breaking changes with tooltip typing and component props
• react-day-picker v9 (recommended v8) - potential breaking changes with controlled props and class names
• Zod v4 (not used in codebase) - no impact as no schemas exist

These manual updates may introduce compatibility issues that require additional testing.
