Tuner (see TUNER.md): a draggable, collapsible dev panel rendering every group registered via defineTunables() as slider + number-input rows. - Live: physics/light/material/halo values are read per frame; formation values trigger a debounced re-sample - Values persist to localStorage; modified labels tint accent; Copy puts a JSON snapshot on the clipboard for baking back into defaults; Reset clears - Shown in dev builds or with ?tuner=1; drag position and section collapse state persist - Policy (documented): every new tweakable constant registers with the tuner by default - Hero groups: Formation, Physics, Cursor & Light, Material, Halo Formation: the hex lattice read too uniform. Balls are now placed by multi-pass dart throwing over the glyph mask — big balls claim spots first, smaller ones settle into leftover gaps, random depth within the slab, 3D overlap rejection via spatial hash — a faked settled-pile impression, not a physics solve. Stroke-margin test keeps big balls inside the letterforms so the type stays crisp.
Frontend
This is an nx monorepo that can contain multiple apps and shared libraries.
All commands to run these projects are performed from this directory (except the repo-root launcher scripts noted below).
Requirements
- Node.js 20+ (Nx 21 / Vite 6 requirement). Install via nvm,
nodejs.org, or
brew install node. - npm (ships with Node).
We use npm, not pnpm. pnpm was briefly adopted ("add pnpm to solve build issues") and later removed ("fix(frontend): consume video-editor libs via nx path aliases, drop pnpm"). If you have leftovers from that era — a
pnpm-lock.yaml,pnpm-workspace.yaml, or anode_modules/.pnpmdirectory — npm installs will fail (typically withENOTEMPTYrename errors). See Troubleshooting below.
Install dependencies
npm install
Running the apps in dev mode
From the repository root, the launcher scripts (these preflight your environment, install dependencies, and free the dev port first):
./script/website/unix_frontend_dev.sh # artcraft-website (marketing site), port 4200
./script/website/unix_frontend_webapp_dev.sh # artcraft-webapp (user dashboard), port 4201
./script/artcraft/unix_frontend_dev.sh # artcraft (Tauri app frontend), port 5173
Or directly from this directory:
nx dev artcraft-website
nx dev artcraft-webapp
nx dev artcraft # NB: the Tauri app also needs the Rust dev server running
nx dev editor2d
Building
npx nx build artcraft-website
npx nx build artcraft-webapp
npx nx build artcraft
npx nx build editor2d
Netlify deploys run apps/<app>/script/netlify_build.sh (see each app's
netlify.toml).
Troubleshooting
npm install fails with ENOTEMPTY: directory not empty, rename ...
Your node_modules tree is corrupted — usually an interrupted install, or a
tree written by pnpm back when the repo briefly used it. Fix:
./clean_modules.sh
npm install
Or the manual minimum:
rm -rf node_modules .nx pnpm-lock.yaml pnpm-workspace.yaml
npm install
Stale build state after switching branches
Call this when starting on main or a new branch:
./clean_modules.sh
It removes all dist/ outputs, resets the nx cache, and removes
node_modules.
Import aliases
The names for @frontend and @storyteller come from the package.json file
in the libs folder:
import { Login } from "@frontend/login";
import { api } from "@storyteller/api";
For shared UI components, import from @storyteller/ui-[componentname]:
import { Button } from "@storyteller/ui-button";
import { Modal } from "@storyteller/ui-modal";
Generating a new component library
# 1. Generate the library
npx nx g @nx/react:library libs/components/toaster --import-path=@storyteller/ui-toaster --bundler=vite
npm install
# 2. Import it somewhere in code
# 3. Sync and build
nx sync
nx build
