Getting Started

Prerequisites

• .NET 9 SDK
• SQL Server or SQL Server container

Run the Web App

git clone https://github.com/alex-stefanov/FarmOu.git
cd FarmOu
dotnet restore FarmOu.sln
dotnet build FarmOu.sln
dotnet run --project FarmOu.Web

Run the Console App

dotnet run --project FarmOu

Run Tests

dotnet test FarmOu.sln

Configuration

The web app reads its connection string from FarmOu.Web/appsettings.Development.json through the environment-specific configuration extension. For production or shared environments, move database credentials to user secrets, environment variables, or your deployment secret store.

Database

The data layer uses FarmOuDbContext with Entity Framework Core migrations. Key tables include farmers, crops, tools, XP levels, farmer-crop inventory, farmer-tool inventory, crop purchases, crop sales, tool purchases, and farming sessions.
