Lethean Server

lethean-server Coverage Status

Clientside PWA server written using Danet and Deno for Lethean VPN Web3 apps,

When porting app’s for the web to desktop, this project provides a server that can be used to host your app’s backend on the client machine.

It enables a webapp to run as a standalone desktop app, with the backend running on the client machine. Using typical HTTP/REST API’s, the app can communicate with the backend server to access files, data, sqlite.

It is written in Deno, a secure runtime for JavaScript and TypeScript. It is designed to be easy to use and secure by default.

It can be run as just a backend service, or as a full desktop app with a frontend served by the backend.

We use this with GoLang for desktop as a backend server for an Angular app and a frontend for our docker container admin ui’s.

It will by default run on localhost:36911 alowing multiple configurations for both server and clientside use cases
