This is a demo repo. Wanted to check how I could integrate Astro and Directus CMS. The Astro site uses Directus for user login/authentication.

In the astro folder, create a copy of the .env.sample file and name it .env. For testing purposes you may keep existing value for AUTH_COOKIE_SECRET_KEY. Eventually do change it to a different string.

Install the npm dependencies in each folder.

cd astro
npm install
cd ../directus
npm install

To run the demo, first start the Directus server.

(cd directus; npm run start)

Then in a different tab, start the Astro dev server.

(cd astro; npm run dev)
