URL-Shortener

Monorepo for the URL shortener application.

Structure

• backend/ - Kotlin + Spring Boot API
• frontend/ - React + TypeScript SPA

Local Development

Run each module directly:

cd backend
./gradlew bootRun

Frontend:

cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev

Or run the full local stack from the repo root:

docker compose up -d --build

This starts:

• MongoDB on localhost:27017
• Backend on http://localhost:8080
• Frontend on http://localhost:3000

Working Conventions

• Backend-only docs and tooling live under backend/.
• Frontend-only docs and tooling live under frontend/.
• Root-level CI and local orchestration should reference module paths explicitly.

Notes

• Backend-specific setup remains in backend/README.md.
• Frontend-specific setup remains in frontend/README.md.
