Grapher admin server

Development server

To run the local development server you need to have a working local TypeScript environment and a mysql grapher database with the our world in data content loaded.

Set up your .env file by copying the example:

cp .env.example .env

Then run the three development processes:

yarn startTscServer
yarn startAdminServer
yarn startViteServer

Or alternatively, you can also start all 3 processes in one terminal window with tmux:

yarn startTmuxServer

Then head to localhost:3030/admin. If everything is going to plan, you should see a login screen! The default user account is admin@example.com with a password of admin.

This development server will rebuild the site when changes are made, so you only need to reload the browser when making changes.
