MojoCMS

This project is a work in progress. Building a CMS for my personal website, but with the intention of making it a generic CMS that can be used by anyone.

Running the Application

Requirements

• .NET 8.0
• Node.js
• Docker

Prior to running the application, the following must be done:

• Navigate to MojoCMS.App/ and run npm i
• Navigate to MojoCMS.AppHost/ and set a password using:
  • dotnet user-secrets set Parameters:postgresql-password <password>

Project Structure

• MojoCMS.App - The frontend application built with Next.js
• MojoCMS.API - The backend API built with ASP.NET
• MojoCMS.AppHost - Aspire AppHost for quick development (DX QoL)
• MojoCMS.MigrationService - A worker service for migrating the database on start

Notes

At some point it occured to me that it might have been wiser to use a .NET frontend for this project and Next.js for my personal website. I'm thinking of sticking with Next.js on this project to continue learning Aspire's capabilities with .NET.
