# 🚀 FARM Stack Template

A modern, scalable template to kickstart your full-stack web projects. This template combines FastAPI (Python), React (JavaScript), and PostgresDB, all containerized with Docker and orchestrated via Docker Compose. It’s designed for rapid development and easy deployment, with a clear structure for both backend and frontend.

Inspired by best practices and scalable architecture patterns, this template helps you build robust, production-ready web applications with:
- **FastAPI** for high-performance Python APIs
- **React** for a modern, component-based frontend
- **PostgresDB** for reliable data storage
- **Nginx** for efficient static file serving and reverse proxy
- **Docker & Docker Compose** for seamless local development and deployment

Whether you're building a prototype or a large-scale application, this template provides a solid foundation for your FARM stack projects.

## 💡 Getting Started

### Backend (FastAPI)
1. Create a virtual environment (if not using Docker):
   ```shell
   py -m venv .venv
   .venv\Scripts\activate  # Windows
   source .venv/bin/activate  # macOS/Linux
   ```
2. Install dependencies:
   ```shell
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   ```
   Or use Docker Compose:
   ```shell
   docker compose up
   ```
3. Copy `.env_sample` to `.env` and update variables.
4. Run migrations:
   ```shell
   alembic upgrade head
   ```
5. Start FastAPI:
   ```shell
   fastapi dev  # Dev
   fastapi run  # Prod
   ```

### Frontend (React)
1. In `frontend/`:
   ```shell
   npm install
   npm start
   ```
   Visit `http://localhost:3000`.
2. Build for production:
   ```shell
   npm run build
   ```

### Nginx
- Use `nginx/nginx.conf` to serve the frontend and proxy API requests.
- Example Docker run:
  ```shell
  docker run --name my-nginx -v /path/to/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro -v /path/to/frontend/build:/usr/share/nginx/html:ro -p 80:80 -d nginx
  ```
