Luuppi ry is the subject association for students studying mathematics, statistical data analysis, and computer science at Tampere University. Since 1969, Luuppi has been actively promoting the interests of its members and organizing a variety of free-time activities. It proudly holds the distinction of being the largest subject association at the University of Tampere!
This repository is the foundation of luuppi.fi website. It contains two main components: a Content Management System (CMS) powered by Strapi, and the website's frontend built using Next.js. This project is led by Luuppi's WWW / IT representatives, who are elected annually through a voting process. If you have any questions about the repository, you can contact the team at webmaster@luuppi.fi.
Important
The frontend content is primarily fetched from the CMS. Therefore, when developing the frontend, you should work with an instance of the CMS. If you are solely focused on frontend development without modifying the CMS logic, you can even use the production instance for this purpose. To make this adjustment, you can change the NEXT_PUBLIC_STRAPI_BASE_URL inside next/.env.local.
Note: The following commands should be executed within the next folder.
Before you begin, ensure you have the following prerequisites installed on your system:
- Node.js (Version >= v20.xx)
First, fill in the configuration file .env.local. You can use example.env as a reference.
Run the following command to install project dependencies:
npm iLaunch the development server by running the following command:
npm run devThe development server should now be up and running at http://localhost:3000.
Strapi doesn't necessitate extensive coding. Initially, Strapi is bootstrapped using a CLI command. Subsequent 'development' mainly involves running a local instance and utilizing the content-type builder, which allows for local file changes. These changes can later be pushed to the remote server. Importantly, making modifications with the content-type builder can only be performed in the development environment; it's restricted in the production environment.
In summary, you use the content-type builder locally to structure the correct 'data models.' Once you've finished your work, you can push the changes to the remote server and switch to production mode.
Important
When modifying content in Strapi, update the newly generated types on the frontend by running copyTypes.js in the project's root. This action will copy the Strapi-generated types to the frontend.
Note: The following commands should be executed within the strapi folder.
