The backend binary can be build by using cargo build in the backend directory. With Rust installed, it should download all dependancies and compile the binary for you.
- Pulling Official Single Player Map data from Steam, caching that data to avoid needing to re-parse/compare.
- Supports multithreading with Rayon.
- Queries to the API for comparison data.
Plans for the future include allowing args for the binary to allow it to distinguish between different tasks, but the current goal is to use it for fetching / process / cache times from the Steam Leaderboards, as well as to calculate and cache profile data for all players.
The purpose of keeping this backend seperate from the web-server is to off-load some more computationally heavy tasks to an entirely different process for modularity. None of this design is final

The code is being re-writen to no longer use Diesel.rs and MySQL. More information to come.
Be sure to copy the .env.example file, remove .example from the file name, and change the contents of the file to suite your usecase.

- Endpoints for sp/coop/changelog pages.
- Supports db pool and async for non-blocking, fast response to simultanious queries.
- Result Caching (redis?).
- Migrating to Postgres.
- Different query handler.
- Authentication handling through Steam.

The front-end build can be done with npm install in the /board-portal-2 folder and once dependancies are installed, the client server can be started with npm start
- Supports querying a running webserver on it's given endpoints for changelog, preview pages, sp maps and coop maps.
- Light and dark theme support.
- Prototyped page designs for many auxiliary pages.
