Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Node.js & npm
• A Cloudflare account (Workers + D1) for deployment

Local development

Backend (Worker + local D1):

cd worker
npm install
npm run migrate:local   # first time only
npx wrangler dev        # API on http://localhost:8787

Frontend:

cd bike-sharing-dashboard
npm install
npm run dev             # UI on http://localhost:5173, calls the local worker

Deployment

Live at cycle.arrakis.house. Pushes to main that touch worker/ or bike-sharing-dashboard/ trigger .github/workflows/deploy.yml, which builds the frontend, applies D1 migrations, and runs wrangler deploy. The Worker serves the static frontend and the /api/v1 API from the same origin, and a 10-minute cron snapshots the Beryl GBFS feeds into D1.

Technologies Used

• Frontend: React, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Vite, Radix UI
• Backend: Cloudflare Workers, Hono, D1 (SQLite), TypeScript
