It is\nnot a problem that it imports a file with a `.tsx` extension becaues browsers\nignore file extensions.

It's broken up into:\n\n- [`../index.ts`](../index.ts) - this is the **entrypoint** for this whole\n project, which is why it's in the folder above this one, even though it's\n technically part of the backend\n- `database/` - this contains the code for interfacing with the app's SQLite\n database table\n\n## Hono\n\nThis app uses [Hono](https://hono.dev/) as the API framework. You can think of\nHono as a replacement for [ExpressJS](https://expressjs.com/) that works in\nserverless environments like Val Town or Cloudflare Workers. If you come from\nPython or Ruby, Hono is also a lot like\n[Flask](https://github.com/pallets/flask) or\n[Sinatra](https://github.com/sinatra/sinatra), respectively.\n\n## Serving assets to the frontend\n\nThis backend HTTP server is responsible for serving all static assets to the\nbrowser to render the app, including HTML, JavaScript (including all client-side\nReact), CSS, and even the favicon SVG.\n\nWe use helper functions from [std/utils](https://www.val.town/x/std/utils/code)\nfor getting files and serving them.\n\n### `index.html`\n\nThe most complicated part of this backend API is serving index.html. In this app\n(like most apps) we serve it at the root, ie `GET /`.\n\nWe _bootstrap_ `index.html` with some initial data from the server, so that it\ngets dynamically injected JSON data without having to make another round-trip\nrequest to the server to get that data on the frontend. This is a common pattern\nfor client-side rendered apps.\n\n## CRUD API Routes\n\nThis app has two CRUD API routes: for reading and inserting into the messages\ntable. They both speak JSON, which is standard. They import their functions from\n`/backend/database/queries.ts`. These routes are called from the React app to\nrefresh and update data.\n\n## Errors\n\nHono and other API frameworks have a habit of swallowing up Errors. We turn off\nthis default behavior by re-throwing errors, because we think most of the time\nyou'll want to see the full stack trace instead of merely \"Internal Server\nError\". You can customize how you want errors to appear.",[],[153,130],"c971d944-f38a-11ef-b3e8-569c3dd06744","queries.ts","128f78d8-f382-11ef-8205-569c3dd06744","f6e95df6-f381-11ef-8619-569c3dd06744",168,["D",1740496288240],22,"import { sqlite } from \"https://esm.town/v/stevekrouse/sqlite\";\nimport { type Message, MESSAGE_LIMIT } from \"../../shared/utils.ts\";\nimport { createTables, tableName } from \"./migrations.ts\";\n\n// This will create the database table if it doesn't exist.\n// This will run every time the app starts up.

Every Val Town account comes with a free SQLite database, hosted on\n[Turso](https://turso.tech/).

You can comment this line out for a slight (30ms) performance\nimprovement on cold starts.

Happily LLMs are quite good at those sort of\ndatabase operations, but please reach out in the\n[Val Town Discord](https://discord.com/invite/dHv45uN5RY) if you need help.\n\n## Queries\n\nThe queries file is where running the migrations happen in this app. It'd also\nbe reasonable for that to happen in index.ts, or as is said above, for that line\nto be commented out, and only run when actual changes are made to your database\nschema.\n\nThe queries file exports functions to get and write data.
