Built with SvelteKit 2, Svelte 5, Tailwind CSS 4, DaisyUI, PocketBase and Bun.

Local development

Install Bun, Docker with Docker Compose, and mkcert, then run:

git clone https://github.com/PURE3D-EU/pure3d.git
cd pure3d
make dev

Open https://127.0.0.1:60020. This provisions the local PocketBase and MinIO services, installs Voyager, and starts the Docker frontend. Certificate setup may require administrator approval. Local commands use local services even if an existing .env points to production.

Private seed data and 3D assets are not included; obtain them from a project maintainer. For setup details, asset provisioning, local ORCID sign-in and alternative workflows (including a native Bun frontend), see Development.

Production access is explicit: make dev-prod connects a local frontend to live services; changes affect production data. See Live OVH opt-in.
