Schofinity

Schofinity is a platform that provides scholarship information and assists users in preparing for scholarship applications through programs like bootcamps, workshops, and mentoring.

Note

This project is a complete rebuild of the original Schofinity, developed to learn and implement several modern technologies.

Get Started

Prerequisites

Make sure you have Bun installed. If not, you can install it globally with:

npm i -g bun

Install dependencies

Use Bun to install all dependencies:

bun install

Configure environment

You need to configure your environment variables:

1. Create a .env file in the project’s root directory.
2. Inside .env, set the ENVIRONMENT variable to match the JSON config file you want to use. For example, if you have a config file at config/development.json, use:

ENVIRONMENT=development

Note

The .env file is only used to specify the JSON config name.

Run migrations

Before starting the app, make sure your database schema is up-to-date:

bun run migrate up -f config/{configuration}.json

Note

Replace {configuration} with your desired config file name.

Start the application

Finally, run the app:

bun run index.ts
