Apps and URLs

Nova Print runs as several frontends that share one API. Use the table that matches your environment.

Production

App	Folder (repo)	Public URL
Ecommerce store	frontend-ecommerce	https://novaprint.co.in
Admin dashboard	frontend-admin-dashboard	https://admin.novaorder.in
POS	frontend-pos	https://pos.novaorder.in
Checkout (customer links)	printbazar-checkout	https://store.novaorder.in
API	backend-main	https://api.novaorder.in

Sources: docs/DEPLOYMENT.md and production env examples.

Important URL shapes

• Customer (shared) checkout link: https://store.novaorder.in/{pos-slug}/{link-code}
  Opened in the Checkout app. Staff create these from POS as Customer Link.
• Catalog link: https://pos.novaorder.in/{pos-slug}/catalog/{link-code}
  Served by the POS app’s public catalog routes (browse → checkout steps). Staff create these from POS as Catalog Link.
• POS terminal: https://pos.novaorder.in/{pos-slug}
  Staff unlock with the terminal password (not an Admin username login).
• Admin login: https://admin.novaorder.in/login
  Staff username + password (JWT via /api/token/).

Local development (typical ports)

Ports come from each app’s Vite/Next config and the root .env.example:

App	Command (from that folder)	Typical URL
Admin	npm run dev	http://localhost:3000
POS	npm run dev	http://localhost:3001
Checkout	npm run dev	http://localhost:3002
Ecommerce	npm run dev	http://localhost:3003
API	python manage.py runserver	http://localhost:8000 (API under /api/)

Related env keys (examples):

• ADMIN_FRONTEND_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3000
• POS_FRONTEND_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3001
• CHECKOUT_FRONTEND_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3002
• ECOMMERCE_FRONTEND_BASE_URL=http://localhost:3003
• VITE_CHECKOUT_BASE_URL / VITE_API_BASE_URL for Vite apps
• NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL / NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URL for the store

Local customer-link URLs look like http://localhost:3002/{pos-slug}/{link-code}. Local catalog links use the POS origin, e.g. http://localhost:3001/{pos-slug}/catalog/{link-code}.

Docs site

This documentation site itself defaults to http://localhost:3000 when you run npm start inside documentation/ — that is not the Admin app. Do not confuse the two when both are running; stop one or use different ports if they collide.

Verify in UI

Exact menu labels, copy-link buttons, and which host appears in a copied URL can vary by build env. If a copied link looks wrong (for example still points at localhost in production), check frontend env vars with your operator — do not invent a host.
