# Monorepo App Architecture

We use a combination of Rust, React (Next.js), TypeScript, Tauri, Drizzle (ORM), MySQL, TailwindCSS throughout this Turborepo powered monorepo.

> A note about database: The codebase is currently designed to work with MySQL only. MariaDB or other compatible databases might partially work but are not officially supported.

### Apps:

- `desktop`: A [Tauri](https://tauri.app) (Rust) app, using [SolidStart](https://start.solidjs.com) on the frontend.
- `web`: A [Next.js](https://nextjs.org) web app.

### Packages:

- `ui`: A [React](https://reactjs.org) Shared component library.
- `utils`: A [React](https://reactjs.org) Shared utility library.
- `tsconfig`: Shared `tsconfig` configurations used throughout the monorepo.
- `database`: A [React](https://reactjs.org) and [Drizzle ORM](https://orm.drizzle.team/) Shared database library.
- `config`: `eslint` configurations (includes `eslint-config-next`, `eslint-config-prettier` other configs used throughout the monorepo).
