# CartSnitch Monorepo
CartSnitch is a self-hosted grocery price intelligence platform. This repo consolidates the core services and the flagship frontend PWA.
## Services
| Directory | Service | Purpose |
|-----------|---------|---------|
| `/` (root) | **Frontend** | React 18 PWA — mobile-first price intelligence UI |
| `api/` | **API Gateway** | FastAPI — frontend-facing REST API |
| `common/` | **Common** | Shared Python models, schemas, Alembic migrations |
| `receiptwitness/` | **ReceiptWitness** | Purchase ingestion via retailer scrapers |
## Quick Start
### Frontend (root)
```bash
npm install
npm run dev # http://localhost:5173
npm run build # production build
npm run test # unit tests (Vitest)
```
### Python Services
Each Python service uses [uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) and has its own `pyproject.toml`:
```bash
cd api # or common / receiptwitness
uv sync
uv run pytest
```
## Development Workflow
- **Never push directly to main.** Always open a PR from a feature branch.
- Branch naming: `feature/<description>` or `fix/<description>`
- Conventional commits: `feat:`, `fix:`, `refactor:`, `docs:`, `chore:`
## Architecture
For full details see [CLAUDE.md](./CLAUDE.md) or the per-service `CLAUDE.md` in each subdirectory.
CartSnitch is a polyrepo-style monorepo: each service can be built and deployed independently, but sharing code between `common/` and the other Python services is done via local path dependencies in `pyproject.toml`.
