run the backend and frontend separately

[volodgo]

Hello!
I want to run the backend and frontend separately.
I can do this for the front "turbo run start" and it works.
How can I do this separately for the backend, so that I can develop the frontend separately from the backend.

It depends on which IDE you use to develop on the backend, but in general there is nothing special to do.
Simply start the sirius-web-sample-application Spring Boot application, for example using the Eclipse-based Spring Tools Suite:

Of course you must also have a PostgreSQL database running at the location expected in the app's configuration properties, see the README for an example Docker command-line.

OK, thanks for answer!
I don't want to change the backend, I take it as is. I found the following solution for myself
I commented out the sirius-web-frontend dependency so it doesn't run the frontend

I don't understand Java. Did I turn off the front module correctly?
Next, I modified sirius-web/packages/sirius-web/frontend/sirius-web/vite.config.js so that requests are proxied to a different url

And changed sirius-web/packages/sirius-web/frontend/sirius-web/.env.development

Yes, but it should not be necessary. This is just to provide the built version of the frontend (HTML/CSS/JS/images) as static assets for the backend to serve at :8080 when in production.

In your case, if you run your front on e.g. :5173 and use that from your browser, it will talk to the backend APIs at :8080 but never ask for the frontend assets there.

Yes, you are right, this is not necessary)
