How to use it

How to use it please?

So, basically, after cgapp create, which I got the following,

  Create a new project via Create Go App CLI v4.0.1... 

[?] Choose a backend framework: fiber
[?] Choose a frontend framework/library: vue
[?] Choose a web/proxy server: none
[?] If everything is okay, can I create this project for you? ;) Yes

 [OK] Backend was created with template `github.com/create-go-app/fiber-go-template`! 
 [OK] Frontend was created with template `vue`! 
 [OK] Ansible inventory, playbook and roles for deploying your project was created! 

what should I do next?

The first step is test as per the generated Makefile, but this is what I get:

$ make test
npm ERR! Missing script: "test"
npm ERR! 
npm ERR! To see a list of scripts, run:
npm ERR!   npm run

And cd backend && go test ./... failed as well:

I was able to build and start backend myself:

 âââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââ â                   Fiber v2.48.0                   â 
 â              http://127.0.0.1:33859               â 
 â      (bound on host 0.0.0.0 and port 33859)       â 
 â                                                   â 
 â Handlers ............ 21  Processes ........... 1 â 
 â Prefork ....... Disabled  PID ............. 58303 â 
 âââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââ 

However, what should I do with the frontend, which has the following files?

frontend$ ls 
README.md  index.html  package.json  public  src  vite.config.js

Overall, how to make use of the generated project please?

[suntong]

Is my understanding correct that the backend is basically cloned from github.com/create-go-app/fiber-go-template, and the frontend is just an empty Vue 3 based on the default template from Vite?
Is there any integration/interaction between the frontend and the backend?

Yes, in the totality of the facts, you're right.

The Create Go App project is designed to facilitate the initial creation of a full-service project. This means that the CLI only does the initial work for you, you have to develop the rest yourself.

Yes, all provided Go project templates (backend) are provided from pre-built templates in a minimal configuration to get you started (you can find them in the repositories of this organization).

OK. Thanks for the confirmation.
