AussieEat – Frontend + FastAPI backend

This project contains a Next.js 15 application (Turbopack) and a lightweight FastAPI backend that powers AussieEat’s maker/eater flows.

Requirements

• Node.js 20+
• Python 3.12

Backend (FastAPI)

cd backend
python -m venv .venv
. .venv/Scripts/activate  # Windows
# source .venv/bin/activate  # macOS/Linux
python -m pip install -U pip setuptools wheel
pip install -r requirements.txt
uvicorn backend.main:app --reload

The API listens on http://localhost:8000. Check health with http://localhost:8000/api/health.

Frontend (Next.js)

npm install
npm run dev

Visit http://localhost:3000 to interact with the app. The auth flows and dashboards call the FastAPI endpoints directly.

Environment configuration

The frontend defaults to http://localhost:8000 for API calls. To point at another host, create .env.local:

NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL="https://your-api-host"
