Set up Mangalord with a Rust/axum backend, SvelteKit frontend, Postgres, and Docker Compose deployment. Establishes the architecture and TDD patterns the project will extend: - Hexagonal-ish backend layering (domain / repo / storage / api) with a pluggable Storage trait (LocalStorage today, S3 as a future impl). - Initial migration: users, mangas, chapters, bookmarks. - Vertical slice for mangas (list, search, create, get) with #[sqlx::test] integration coverage and storage unit tests. - SvelteKit frontend using Svelte 5 runes, typed API client, Vitest unit tests and Playwright e2e with route mocking. - CLAUDE.md documenting layering, TDD/git/SemVer workflow rules, and extension points (tags, fulltext search, OCR, S3, auth). - Project-scoped .claude/settings.json with permission allowlist for the toolchain (git, cargo, npm/vite, docker, psql, gh, doc fetches).

Mangalord
A self-hosted manga and comics reader. Browse, search, read, bookmark, and upload manga and chapters. The HTTP API is consumed by both the SvelteKit web UI and external bots/scripts that perform the same actions programmatically.
Stack
- Backend: Rust, axum, sqlx
- Database: Postgres 16
- Frontend: SvelteKit 2 (Svelte 5 runes), TypeScript, Vite
- File storage: pluggable
Storagetrait — local FS today, S3 (and friends) as future impls - Deploy: Docker Compose on a single server
Quick start
cp .env.example .env
docker compose up --build
- Frontend: http://localhost:3000
- API: http://localhost:8080/api
- API health: http://localhost:8080/api/health
Local development
Run only Postgres in Docker; run backend and frontend natively for fast iteration:
docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d
# backend
cd backend
export DATABASE_URL=postgres://mangalord:mangalord@localhost:5432/mangalord
cargo run
# frontend (separate shell)
cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev
The Vite dev server proxies /api to http://localhost:8080.
Tests
This project is developed test-first. Tests live at three levels:
# Backend: unit (in-module) + integration (tests/, per-test DB via #[sqlx::test])
cd backend && cargo test
# Frontend: unit / module tests (Vitest)
cd frontend && npm test
# Frontend: end-to-end (Playwright; spins up dev server, mocks API by default)
cd frontend && npm run test:e2e
