Setup & deployment
The project uses Bun for package management and Vite for the dev server and build. The conventions below keep the codebase consistent.
Running locally
- Install dependencies:
bun install. - Start the dev server:
bun run dev. - Run tests:
bunx vitest run(unit) and Playwright for end-to-end specs intests/e2e.
Building & publishing
The build is produced by Vite via the TanStack Start plugin. On Lovable, publishing is handled from the editor — use the Publish action to deploy. The live site is served from the project’s Lovable domain.

Conventions
- All user-facing copy uses UK English (organise, colour, centre, programme, licence). See
docs/STYLE_GUIDE.md. - Headings and buttons use sentence case; dates are written as “D Month YYYY”.
- Never edit
src/routeTree.gen.ts— it is generated automatically. - Colours come from design tokens in
src/styles.css; avoid hard-coded colour utilities.
