To run the frontend and backend, just run the following command:
docker compose up -d && docker compose logs -fThe platform will be available at http://localhost:3000.
This project uses SvelteKit for the frontend and FastAPI for the backend, as well as PostgreSQL as the database.
It is wanted that users can choose the same appliance multiple times, and this is accounted when computing the consumption per appliance.
The displayed consumption is for all the appliances of the same type combined.
As the results page can be used to display any previous simulation, in real-world scenario there might be bad actors that could scrap the results of other users. It would be possible to use very long ids to prevent it.
The user email is not returned from any endpoints to prevent leaking personal information.
Finally for a given list of appliances and total consumption, there might be multiple combinations of individual consumption that would result in the same total consumption. In this case, the first combination found is returned.
