# embassyOS Frontend
embassyOS has three user interfaces and a shared library, all written in Ionic/Angular/Typescript using an Angular workspace environment:
1. **ui**: the main user interface
1. **setup-wizard**: used to facilitate initial setup
1. **diagnostic-ui**: used to display certain diagnostic information in the event embassyOS fails to initialize
1. **marketplace**: abstracted ui elements to search for, list and display details for packages and their dependencies
1. **shared**: contains components, types, and functions shared amongst all of the UIs.
## Development Environment Setup
- Requirements:
- [Install nodejs](https://nodejs.org/en/)
- [Install npm](https://www.npmjs.com/get-npm)
Check your versions
```sh
node --version
v16.10.0
npm --version
v8.0.0
```
## Running locally with mocks
1. Clone the repository
```sh
git clone https://github.com/Start9Labs/embassy-os.git
cd embassy-os
git submodule update --init --recursive
cd frontend
npm ci
npm run build:deps
```
2. Copy `config-sample.json` and its contents to a new file `config.json`.
```sh
cp config-sample.json config.json
```
By default, "useMocks" is set to `true`.
Valid values for "maskAs" are `tor` and `lan`.
3. Start the development server(s)
```sh
npm run start:ui
npm run start:setup-wizard
npm run start:diagnostic-ui
```
## Running locally with proxied backend
This section enables you to run a local frontend with a remote backend (eg. hosted on a live Embassy). It assumes you have completed Step 1 and Step 2 in the [section above](#running-locally-with-mocks)
1. Set `useMocks: false` in `config.json`
2. Create a proxy configuration file from the sample:
```sh
cp proxy.conf-sample.json proxy.conf.json
```
3. Change the target address to desired IP address in `proxy.conf.json`
4. Start the development server
```sh
npm run start:ui:proxy
```
