Live project: https://subnet-credit.vercel.app/

A fast, modern React + TypeScript starter built with Vite, Tailwind CSS and shadcn-ui. This repository is scaffolded to work both with Lovable (the visual prompt-driven editor) and with a local development workflow using your preferred IDE.

About

This repository is a Lovable project template intended for rapid development of UI-first web apps. It includes:

• Vite for fast dev server and optimized builds
• TypeScript for type-safe development
• React for UI composition
• Tailwind CSS for utility-first styling
• shadcn-ui components for accessible, composable UI primitives

Use it as a starting point for dashboards, marketing sites, admin panels, or any React-based frontend.

---

Tech stack

• Node.js (LTS recommended)
• Vite
• React + TypeScript
• Tailwind CSS
• shadcn-ui
• Optional: GitHub Codespaces, Lovable visual editor

---

Getting started (quick)

Prerequisites

• Node.js (16+ recommended; use nvm to manage versions: https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm)
• Git

Steps

# 1. Clone the repo (use your Git URL)
git clone <YOUR_GIT_URL>
cd <YOUR_PROJECT_NAME>

# 2. Install dependencies
npm install

# 3. Start dev server (hot reload + instant preview)
npm run dev

Open the URL printed in the terminal (usually http://localhost:5173) to view the app.

Development scripts

Common npm scripts included in this template:

• npm run dev — Start Vite dev server with HMR
• npm run build — Create a production build (output in dist/)
• npm run preview — Preview the production build locally (uses Vite preview)
• npm run lint — Run linters (if configured)
• npm run format — Auto-format code (if configured)
• npm test — Run tests (if tests are present)

Check package.json for the exact scripts available in this project.

---

Environment variables

If your app requires secrets or third-party keys, create a .env.local file at the repository root and list variables there. Example:

VITE_API_URL=https://api.example.com
VITE_MAP_KEY=pk.XXXXXXXXXXXXX

Note: Vite exposes env variables prefixed with VITE_ to the client bundle. Never commit private keys or secrets to git.

---

Editing workflows

You can edit this project using any of the following methods:

1. Lovable (recommended for visual / prompt-driven edits)

   • Visit the project page: https://lovable.dev/projects/15daf584-6d07-4cac-9279-6d05e63967cb
   • Make changes through the Lovable UI; changes are committed automatically to this repo.

2. Local IDE (developer workflow)

   • Clone the repo, edit files locally, run npm install and npm run dev.
   • Commit and push branches as usual — Lovable will reflect pushed changes.

3. GitHub Web Editor

   • Navigate to the file in the repo on GitHub and click the pencil icon to edit a file directly.

4. GitHub Codespaces

   • Click Code → Codespaces → New codespace to open a full dev environment in the cloud.

Branching and PRs

• Use feature branches and open Pull Requests for changes you want reviewed or tracked.
• Follow your team's branching / commit message conventions.

---

Deployment

Deploy with Lovable

• Open the Lovable project page and click Share → Publish to publish the site using Lovable's deployment.

Other options

• Vercel / Netlify / Cloudflare Pages all work well with Vite static builds.
  • Build: npm run build
  • Deploy the contents of the dist/ folder

Custom domain (Lovable)

• In Lovable: Project → Settings → Domains → Connect Domain
• See docs: https://docs.lovable.dev/features/custom-domain#custom-domain

Project structure (typical)

A typical file layout for this template:

• src/
  • main.tsx — App bootstrap
  • App.tsx — Root component
  • routes/ — Route components
  • components/ — UI components
  • styles/ — Tailwind or global styles
• public/ — Static assets
• index.html
• package.json
• tsconfig.json
• tailwind.config.cjs
• vite.config.ts
• .env.example — Example env vars

Adjust to your needs — this is a small, opinionated starter layout.

---

Troubleshooting

• "npm run dev" not starting:

  • Ensure Node.js version is supported (use nvm to switch).
  • Delete node_modules and reinstall: rm -rf node_modules && npm install

• Styling not updating:

  • Make sure tailwind is configured and the correct content paths include your files.
  • Restart dev server after changing tailwind.config.cjs.

• Env vars not showing in the app:

  • Vite only exposes variables that start with VITE_. Restart dev server after adding .env files.

If you run into problems, search open issues or create a new issue in this repository with reproduction steps and terminal output.

Contributing

Contributions are welcome! A simple workflow:

1. Fork or branch off the main repo.
2. Make changes on a feature branch.
3. Run linting/formatting and tests before committing.
4. Open a PR with a clear description of the change and any migration steps.

Include screenshots or a short demo GIF for UI changes. If the change is large, open an issue first to discuss the approach.
