Development Setup

Requirements: Go ≥ 1.25, Node.js ≥ 20, npm.

Clone & install

git clone https://github.com/Awuqing/BackupX.git && cd BackupX
cd web && npm install && cd ..

Dev servers

Run the backend and the Vite dev server in two terminals:

# Terminal 1: backend on :8340
make dev-server

# Terminal 2: Vite with HMR on :5173
make dev-web

The Vite config proxies /api to http://127.0.0.1:8340 so you can open the UI at http://localhost:5173.

Tests

make test # runs Go + Web test suites
make test-server # Go only
make test-web # Vitest only

Production build

make build # server/bin/backupx + web/dist
make docker # Docker image
make docker-cn # Docker image with mainland China mirrors
