- There is a
shared-types.ts
file in the backend/ and frontend/ directory each which is just a symlink to thetypes.ts
file in the root directory (the symlink was created with commandln -s ../shared-types.ts ./shared-types.ts
inside /backend for example). This allows us to locally reference the shared-types file in root folder as if the file is inside the app directory; then properly copying inside Dockerfile from root context helps maintain references.
