| Goal | What to edit | |------|--------------| | – custom logo, colors, title | Edit /client/src/assets/ or CSS/SCSS files. | | Feature toggle – disable certain UI elements | Modify React/Vue components. | | Self‑hosting – change URLs, enable HTTPS | Update .env variables ( SIGNALING_URL , STUN_TURN_SERVERS ). | | Performance – switch to a compiled front‑end | Run npm run build and serve static files via Nginx. | | Add your own analytics | Insert your tracking snippet in index.html . | Best practice: Keep a separate Git branch for each major change. git checkout -b my‑branding # edit files … git add . git commit -m "Add custom logo & colour scheme" 6️⃣ Build / Compile the Project 6.1 Front‑end (SPA) Build # For React / Vue / Angular npm run build # produces a /dist or /build folder The output is a set of static files (HTML, CSS, JS) ready to be served. 6.2 Back‑end Packaging | Language | Typical “re‑pack” method | |----------|--------------------------| | Node.js | Create a Docker image or a tarball of the node_modules + source. | | Python | Use pip wheel to create a wheel, or freeze dependencies in a Docker image. | | Go | go build -o chatroulette-server ./cmd/server (single binary). | Example: Docker‑based Re‑pack # Dockerfile (root of the project)
# Python example (recommended virtualenv) python -m venv .venv source .venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt chatroulette+github+repack
