## Description
Flame is self-hosted startpage for your server. Its design is inspired (heavily) by [SUI](https://github.com/jeroenpardon/sui). Flame is very easy to setup and use. With built-in editors it allows you to setup your very own appliaction hub in no time - no file editing necessary.

## Technology
- Backend
  - Node.js + Express
  - Sequelize ORM + SQLite
- Frontend
  - React 
  - Redux
  - TypeScript

## Development
```sh
# clone repository
git clone https://github.com/pawelmalak/flame
cd flame

# run only once
npm run dev-init

# start backend and frontend development servers
npm run dev
```

## Building Docker images
