Introduction
Welcome to Manacore
Manacore is a multi-app ecosystem platform built as a pnpm monorepo. It provides shared infrastructure, authentication, and common patterns for building modern web and mobile applications.
What is Manacore?
Manacore is designed to streamline the development of multiple interconnected applications:
- Shared Authentication via Mana Core Auth (EdDSA JWT)
- Unified Database Patterns with Drizzle ORM and PostgreSQL
- Cross-Platform Apps with SvelteKit (web), Expo (mobile), and NestJS (backend)
- Shared UI Components for consistent design across all apps
- Centralized Services for search, storage, and more
