Fence — Portfolio Platform

Two small applications built by our product team:

• backend/ — a FastAPI service exposing portfolio data (/assets, /metrics, /health), backed by Postgres.
• frontend/ — a Next.js dashboard that renders those metrics and an asset table.

Running locally (current state)

The apps run on a laptop today. There is no containerization or automation yet — this is the manual process the product team currently uses.

1. Database (Postgres)

createdb fence_portfolio
psql -d fence_portfolio -f backend/init.sql

2. Backend

cd backend
python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
uvicorn main:app --reload

The API runs on http://localhost:8000 — e.g. http://localhost:8000/metrics

3. Frontend

cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev

The dashboard runs on http://localhost:3000
