Halit Aksoy f0ffd6ba87 feat(backend): add the Quarkus project with a Java port of the engine
Quarkus 3.40 on Java 25, built with the Maven wrapper. The engine is a
line-by-line port of packages/mancala.js; a parity test replays games
recorded with the TypeScript engine, including illegal moves, and
compares every board, turn, error and the game JSON.

Mancala

Mancala is an open source application for playing mancala game online.

Development

The apps use the local packages/mancala.js and packages/core through link: dependencies, so build those first:

yarn build:packages        # from the repo root

After changing a package, rebuild it (or run yarn dev in it to rebuild on change); the apps pick up the new dist.

Postgres (games and Keycloak), Valkey (live games and caches) and Keycloak run with Docker Compose. Create apps/.env once, then start them:

cd apps
cat > .env <<EOF
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres
KEYCLOAK_DB_PASSWORD=keycloak
KEYCLOAK_ADMIN_PASSWORD=admin
MANCALA_DB_PASSWORD=mancala
EOF
docker compose up -d --build postgres valkey keycloak

Postgres is on localhost:5433 and Valkey on localhost:6379; the backend's defaults point there. Then run yarn dev in apps/backend (port 5005) and in apps/frontend (port 1234).

Docker images for the backend and frontend are built from the repo root:

docker build -f apps/backend/Dockerfile -t jhalitaksoy/mancala-backend .
docker build -f apps/frontend/Dockerfile -t jhalitaksoy/mancala-frontend .
