Research direction

No repository files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing Gwen's UI and the Manifest hosting/API boundaries, then map the login, upload, domain, unzip, serving, SSL, and error flows described here. Done means the complete flow works, documentation is available, and the result is demoable.

Description

backend dweb hosting gwen level 1 story ui

Description: This story is part of getting to a simple Level 1 customer usage of dweb hosting on Manifest. Gwen consumes the simple API and can be the initial test ground for dweb hosting. A user should be able to login to Gwen and navigate to a Decentralized Web Hosting Service. There should be a drop-zone for zip files that users can download from their Github and provide. They should also provide their site domain for where the site should be served. We will then unzip the file and serve the site. We can consider having a build step added in a future story, for now it can be a requirement that sites are pre-built.

As a user, I want to have my website hosted on Manifest via a zip file drop so that it is easy onboard.

  • Should be achievable via a UI (Gwen).
  • Should be able to drag and drop or upload a zip file via the UI.
  • Should be able to input the site's domain.
  • Should be able to unzip and serve the website on Manifest.
  • Should activate SSL for the site.
  • Should present an error message ("An error occurred.") to the user (in UI) if the site cannot be served.
  • Should create documentation guide.
  • Should be demoed.
