privacy-stack-template

This is stack is based on the Remix Indie Stack, with additions that center data privacy, self hosting, and add a responsive UI with shadcn. This stack depends on a file system for sqlite and file upload, and on node for crypto functions. Read more about Remix Stacks to get started.

The Privacy Stack comes with a default notes app that showcases its features. To generate a new app with the Privacy Stack run:

npx create-remix@latest --template bocoup/privacy-stack

What's in the stack

  • Production-ready SQLite Database
  • GitHub Actions for linting, typechecking, and smoke testing on merge to production and staging environments
  • Email/Password Authentication with cookie-based sessions
  • Transactional emails with secure tokens, including forgot password and delete my data, with Sendgrid
  • GDPR and CCPA self-serve flows with do not sell, data access, and data deletion flows
    • Default do not sell on signup
    • See what data is stored about me
    • Delete most of my data
    • Delete all of my data
    • Undo sign up
  • Automated provisioning and deployments to a DIY VPS with Ansible: long-running node server with Nginx proxy server, UFW firewall, Certbot for SSL, and systemd for node daemonization
  • Database ORM with Prisma
  • Styling with Tailwind
  • End-to-end testing with Cypress
  • Local third party request mocking with MSW
  • Unit testing with Vitest and Testing Library
  • Code formatting with Prettier
  • Linting with ESLint
  • Static Types with TypeScript

Development

  • Start dev server:

    npm run dev

This starts your app in development mode, rebuilding assets on file changes.

The database seed script creates a new user with some data you can use to get started:

  • Email: boaz@bocoup.com
  • Password: letmeinplease

GitHub Actions

We use GitHub Actions for continuous integration and deployment. Anything that gets into the main branch will be deployed to production after running tests/build/etc. Anything in the dev branch will be deployed to staging.

Testing

Cypress

We use Cypress for our End-to-End tests in this project. You'll find those in the cypress directory. As you make changes, add to an existing file or create a new file in the cypress/e2e directory to test your changes.

We use @testing-library/cypress for selecting elements on the page semantically.

To run these tests in development, run npm run test:e2e:dev which will start the dev server for the app as well as the Cypress client. Make sure the database is running in docker as described above.

We have a utility for testing authenticated features without having to go through the login flow:

cy.login();
// you are now logged in as a new user

We also have a utility to auto-delete the user at the end of your test. Just make sure to add this in each test file:

afterEach(() => {
  cy.cleanupUser();
});

That way, we can keep your local db clean and keep your tests isolated from one another.

Vitest

For lower level tests of utilities and individual components, we use vitest. We have DOM-specific assertion helpers via @testing-library/jest-dom.

Type Checking

This project uses TypeScript. It's recommended to get TypeScript set up for your editor to get a really great in-editor experience with type checking and auto-complete. To run type checking across the whole project, run npm run typecheck.

Linting

This project uses ESLint for linting. That is configured in .eslintrc.js.

Formatting

We use Prettier for auto-formatting in this project. It's recommended to install an editor plugin (like the VSCode Prettier plugin) to get auto-formatting on save. There's also a npm run format script you can run to format all files in the project.

Deployment

This project includes a diy deployment workflow from the bocoup/deploy repo. Follow the instructions in the deploy README. It will guide you through the process of:

  1. Creating or catting your SSH keys
  2. Getting a server
  3. Installing Ansible locally on your computer

Once you follow those steps, you can switch back here. You'll need to do four more things:

  1. Update inventory.yml in the root of this repository with values that match your server.
  2. Lock down the server
npm run lockdown
  1. Provision the server
npm run provision
  1. Deploy the project
npm run deploy

Once you've completed this step, you can run npm run deploy anytime you'd like to deploy
