planc

Simple Planning Poker application

---

This is just a simple multiplayer Planning Poker application. I wrote this because holding cards into the camera while working from home does not work well.

Goals

• Enable efficient participation in planning poker sessions while working from home.
• Enable people in meeting rooms to participate via their mobile phones.
• Provide some basic statistics about the results of each round.

Setup

Docker

The easiest way to setup the application. Just build the image and run it.

docker build -t planc .
docker run --rm -it \
    -p 8080:8080 \
    -e MAX_SESSIONS=1 \
    -e MAX_USERS=8 \
    planc

You can now open the application in your webbrowser (localhost:8080).

Development

The cargo build system expects the frontend to be built already. The top-level docker build takes care of that automatically. It does not support incremental compilation though.

To build the frontend you can use the web/build.sh script. It uses docker to setup a build environment for the frontend and generates the frontend artifacts in web/dist/planc. These artifacts will then be used by cargo when backend is built.
