slad3/universaldirectoryvisualizer

Cross platform Electron based drive and directory visualization application derived from WinDirStat. Designed with cross platform (Windows, OSX, and Linux) and modern technologies as the core improvements.

Universal Directory Visualizer

Requires Nodejs and npm to run

Starting the project

Run npm install to install all packages

Run npm start to start the electron application

Frontend (Angular)

All frontend development files are in frontend folder

./scripts/frontendDev.ps1 will run the frontend in a development environment. It will start a server at "http://localhost:4200/" (clickable in terminal) for in browser. It will also auto update the webpage with any save you make to the folder so you don't have to keep refreshing the page after every change.

./scripts/buildFrontend.ps1 will build and compile the frontend for production and move it into the src/public folder for electron to serve it in app.

Backend (Java)

I recommend opening the backend folder in intellij and doing all backend testing though there. There are a couple tests in the src/main/tests folder for quick testing and development.

./scripts/buildBackend.ps1 will build and compile the backend into a jar and move it into the src/server folder for electron to serve it in app.
