### Frontend Development (Quasar/Vue 3)
Thank you to all our backers! 🙏 [[Become a backer](https://opencollective.com/wikijs#backer)]
> Make sure you are running `yarn dev` in the left-side terminal (Server) first! Requests still need to be forwarded to the server, even in SPA mode!
If you wish to modify any frontend content (under `/ux`), you need to start the Quasar Dev Server in the right-side terminal (UX):
<h2align="center">Contributors</h2>
```sh
yarn dev
```
This project exists thanks to all the people who contribute. [[Contribute]](https://github.com/Requarks/wiki/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md).
You can then access the site at `http://localhost:3001`. Notice the port being `3001` rather than `3000`. The app runs in a SPA (single-page application) mode and automatically hot-reload any modified component. Any requests made to the `/graphql` endpoint are automatically forwarded to the server running on port `3000`, which is why both must be running at the same time.
Note that not all sections/features are available from this mode, notably the page editing features which still relies on the old client code (Vuetify/Vue 2). For example, trying to edit a page will simply not work. You must use the normal mode (port 3000) to edit pages as it relies on legacy client code. As more features gets ported / developed for Vue 3, they will become available in the SPA mode.
Client code from Wiki.js 2.x is located under `/client`. Some sections still rely on this legacy code (notably the page editing features). Code is gradually being removed from this location and replaced with newer code in `/ux`.
[Cloudflare](https://www.cloudflare.com/) for providing their great CDN, SSL and advanced networking services.
In the unlikely event that you need to modify legacy code and regenerate the old client files, you can do so by running in this command in the left-side terminal (Server):
[DigitalOcean](https://m.do.co/c/5f7445bfa4d0) for providing hosting of the Wiki.js documentation site.
