@D6397 are you running on Windows?

[D6397]

Run Visual Studio Code on Windows to access the ubantu server running

[D6397]

The launch command is launched in a terminal on Visual Studio

[D6397]

The same is true for the installation of the ubantu system in the container

I am totally new to this app, but the first place I will look is on Macbook and see if its OK there

debuggging ideas;

1. Docker volume issues
2. simple-git differences between operating systems

[niccolox]

similar error on Macbook Docker Desktop docker compose up workflow

note, am using defaults OpenAI which is built into app UX but I see your docs have Anthropic

on ubuntu 'npx srcbook@latest start' works, I assume its related to how srcbook creates the app is in ~/.srcbook/apps when running in node, but when in docker compose or vscode remote server mode it cant handle it as of yet. I havent dug into the code, but I expect having OS switches for folder locations of apps ...

 npx srcbook@latest start

[niccolox]

depends on os.homedir() on VS code remote server or Ubuntu docker compose etc.

Annoying long tail implementation details.

srcbook/packages/api/constants.mts

Line 11 in 36913a4

export const HOME_DIR = os.homedir();

export const HOME_DIR = os.homedir();
export const SRCBOOKS_DIR = path.join(SRCBOOK_DIR, 'srcbooks');
export const APPS_DIR = path.join(SRCBOOK_DIR, 'apps');

[niccolox]

actually, in docker compose app is created, but the utf-8 simple-git error crashes srcbook when clicked in UI

running in dev it looks like the app is created in .srcbook/apps/... simple-git crashes? on local in dev I guess it restarts, and the app can be viewed in UI, in docker compose the app crashes and doesnt recover?

"dev": "turbo dev",

[niccolox]

I just ran "Create a recipe finder app with beautiful food photography, ingredient lists, and step-by-step instructions. Include search and filtering by cuisine type and dietary restrictions." and it generated an app no crash, no issues afaik

there is some difference in the handling of the returned code?
