Create short “postcards” by placing stars on a canvas, connecting them into a constellation, and attaching a title + a 1–3 sentence message. The app generates a shareable-looking card view (with a random sky gradient, subtle twinkle animation, and optional date/location tag) and lets users save multiple postcards to localStorage, duplicate/edit them, and export as PNG. Components are cleanly separable: starfield canvas editor, connection/label tools, postcard preview, saved gallery, and export/settings panel.
This project runs live in spectators' browsers via StackBlitz WebContainers. Use only WebContainer-compatible dependencies:
- Database: PGlite (
@electric-sql/pglite) — Postgres compiled to WASM - ORM: Drizzle ORM (
drizzle-orm/pglite) - No Turbopack: Next.js MUST use
next dev --no-turbopack(set in package.json scripts). Turbopack requires native bindings unavailable in WebContainers. - No native addons: Avoid
sharp,bcrypt,better-sqlite3,prisma, etc. - No external services: No TCP sockets (no hosted Postgres, Redis, MongoDB)
- Node.js only: No Python, Go, Rust, etc.
If this project uses a database, include a seed.ts file with realistic demo data that runs on every app boot. Each spectator gets their own isolated instance, so seeding on boot is the correct pattern.
