## Code Overview
This project is a Vuepress-based static documentation website. This includes both the backend and frontend of the website at [beta.lbry.tech](https://beta.lbry.tech). All of this packaged and build with [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com).
### Backend
Backend is handled by Node.js + Express. Currently all backend functionality is in one file, [server.js](server.js). It serves the static files generated by Vuepress. Additionally, it works as a proxy for some basic LBRY daemon method calls at daemon.lbry.tech.
### Frontend
[Vuepress](https://vuepress.vuejs.org/) generates static files based on the .vuepress folder and various markdown files in the root of the project. It automatically compiles JS and SCSS found in Vue components in .vuepress folder.
