SvelteKit 2 + Svelte 5 (runes) + TS, built with `adapter-static`
into a single SPA bundle that Caddy serves verbatim in production.
The dashboard targets only `/api/admin/*` (manager); data-plane
invocations go through the orchestrator, not through here.
* Vite dev server proxies `/api` and `/healthz` to PICLOUD_API
(default `http://127.0.0.1:18080` to match the picloud bind
override). Port configurable via PICLOUD_DASHBOARD_PORT.
* `src/lib/api.ts` is a thin typed client over the control-plane
paths; the scripts placeholder route shows the "load → error →
list" shape so the missing-API state is informative, not blank.
* SSR disabled at the layout level: the build is a pure SPA, no
Node runtime is required at serve time.
* `npm run check` and `npm run build` both green; `npm audit`
clean (cookie override pins past the SvelteKit transitive
advisory that doesn't apply in SPA mode).

PiCloud
A lightweight, self-hosted, event-driven serverless compute platform. Upload a Rhai script, get an HTTP endpoint. Designed to run on a single modest server with no idle CPU cost, and to scale out to a small cluster when you need it.
Status: Phase 1 — MVP scaffolding in progress.
The authoritative design lives in
serverless_cloud_blueprint.md.
Why
Existing serverless platforms are either cloud-locked, heavyweight, or both. PiCloud aims for the opposite end of the spectrum: one binary, one database, one reverse proxy — running on hardware you already own.
Architecture (one paragraph)
PiCloud splits into three logical services — manager (control plane: scripts, schedules, dashboard), orchestrator (per-node event ingress and dispatch), and executor (per-node Rhai sandbox) — each backed by a *-core Rust library. In MVP they run in a single process; in cluster mode they run as three binaries with one manager and one orchestrator + executor per node. Caddy fronts everything; PostgreSQL is the single source of truth.
See CLAUDE.md for working notes and serverless_cloud_blueprint.md for the full design.
Quick Start
Coming as scaffolding lands. For now:
# Rust toolchain (pinned via rust-toolchain.toml)
cargo check --workspace
# Run the all-in-one MVP binary (once main.rs is wired up)
cargo run -p picloud
