Getting started

1. Configure the backend

Secrets stay out of the repository. Use .NET user secrets:

cd Rebraco.CMS
dotnet user-secrets init
dotnet user-secrets set "ConnectionStrings:umbracoDbDSN" "Server=localhost,1433;Database=Rebraco;User Id=sa;Password=YOUR_PASSWORD;TrustServerCertificate=true;"

Optional integrations, set the same way:

Key	Purpose
Postmark:ServerToken	Transactional email
Postmark:FromEmail	Sender address
Postmark:NotifyEmail	Internal notification recipient
Stripe:PlatformSecretKey	Server-side Stripe calls
Stripe:PlatformPublishableKey	Client-side Stripe
Stripe:ConnectClientId	Stripe Connect onboarding
Stripe:WebhookSecret	Webhook signature verification
Cors:AllowedOrigins	Allowed origins in production

2. Run the backend

dotnet run --project Rebraco.CMS

The site runs on https://localhost:44339. First run walks through Umbraco installation. The backoffice is at /umbraco.

3. Run the frontend

cd Rebraco.Client
npm install
npm run dev

The dev server runs on http://localhost:3000 and proxies /umbraco and /media to the backend.

Copy .env.example to .env.development and adjust VITE_CMS_BASE_URL and VITE_CMS_MEDIA_URL if your backend is not on the default port.
