AutoBoat @ Virginia Tech — Website

React + TypeScript + Vite site for Virginia Tech's AutoBoat team, styled with Tailwind CSS v4 and routed with react-router-dom. Deployed to autoboat.aoe.vt.edu via VT's S4 (Static Site Storage) service backed by Amazon S3.

Quick start

Requires Node.js 18+. Bun is the default runner (npm/yarn also work).

bun install            # install deps
bun run dev            # dev server at http://localhost:3000
bun run build          # production build → dist/
bun run preview        # preview the build
bun run test           # jest unit tests
bun run lint           # biome lint

Deploying

Deployment is manual via ./scripts/deploy.sh from a local checkout with VT GitLab credentials cached. There is no CI deploy — GitHub Actions does build-only validation on PRs.

./scripts/deploy.sh              # build + deploy
./scripts/deploy.sh --skip-build # deploy an existing dist/

The script builds, fetches aoe_sites/main, replaces the worktree contents with dist/, commits, and fast-forward pushes to code.vt.edu/s4-hosting-sites/aoe/sailbot. The S4 service then syncs main to S3 (a few minutes).

One-time setup (contact the Software Officer for VT GitLab access):

git remote add aoe_sites ssh://git@code.vt.edu/s4-hosting-sites/aoe/sailbot
