Impress prints your markdown to pdf from predefined templates with user and role based access rights.

Impress is built on top of Django Rest Framework and Next.js.

Make sure you have a recent version of Docker and Docker Compose installed on your laptop:

$ docker -v
  Docker version 20.10.2, build 2291f61

$ docker compose -v
  docker compose version 1.27.4, build 40524192

⚠️ You may need to run the following commands with sudo but this can be avoided by assigning your user to the docker group.

The easiest way to start working on the project is to use GNU Make:

$ make bootstrap FLUSH_ARGS='--no-input'

Then you can access to the project in development mode by going to http://localhost:3000. You will be prompted to log in, the default credentials are:

username: impress
password: impress

This command builds the app container, installs dependencies, performs database migrations and compile translations. It's a good idea to use this command each time you are pulling code from the project repository to avoid dependency-releated or migration-releated issues.

Your Docker services should now be up and running 🎉

Note that if you need to run them afterwards, you can use the eponym Make rule:

$ make run-frontend-dev

You can create a basic demo site by running:

$ make demo

Finally, you can check all available Make rules using:

$ make help

You can access the Django admin site at http://localhost:8071/admin.

You first need to create a superuser account:

$ make superuser
