the cobalt frontend is a static web app built with sveltekit + vite.
- to run a dev environment, run
pnpm run dev. - to make a release build of the frontend, run
pnpm run build.
the frontend has several build-time environment variables for configuring various features. to use them, you must specify them when building the frontend (or running a vite server for development).
