The Gradido model can create global prosperity and peace
The Corona crisis has fundamentally changed our world within a very short time.
The dominant financial system threatens to fail around the globe, followed by mass insolvencies, record unemployment and abject poverty. Only with a sustainable new monetary system can humanity master these challenges of the 21st century. The Gradido Academy for Bionic Economy has developed such a system.

Find out more about the Project on its [Website](https://gradido.net/). It is offering vast resources about the idea. The remaining document will discuss the gradido software only.
## Software requirements

Currently we only support `docker` install instructions to run all services, since many different programming languages and frameworks are used.

- [docker](https://www.docker.com/) 
- [docker-compose]

### For Arch Linux
Install the required packages:
```bash
sudo pacman -S docker
sudo pacman -S docker-compose
```

Add group `docker` and then your user to it in order to allow you to run docker without sudo 
```bash
sudo groupadd docker # may already exist `groupadd: group 'docker' already exists`
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
groups # verify you have the group (requires relog)
```

Start the docker service:
```bash
sudo systemctrl start docker
```

## How to run?

### 1. Clone Sources
Clone the repo and pull all submodules
```bash
git clone git@github.com:gradido/gradido.git
git submodule update --recursive --init
```

### 2. Run docker-compose
Run docker-compose to bring up the development environment 
```bash
docker-compose up
```
### Additional Build options
If you want to build for production you can do this aswell:
```bash
docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up
```

## Services defined in this package

- [frontend](./frontend) Wallet frontend
- [backend](./backend) GraphQL & Business logic backend
- [mariadb](./mariadb) Database backend
- [login_server](./login_server) User credential storage & business logic backend
- [community_server](./community_server/) Business logic backend

We are currently restructuring the service to reduce dependencies and unify business logic into one place. Furthermore the databases defined for each service will be unified into one.

### Open the wallet

Once you have `docker-compose` up and running, you can open [http://localhost/vue](http://localhost/vue) and create yourself a new wallet account.

## Troubleshooting
