USC Formula SAE Racing Team Dashboard
Real-time telemetry and data platform for USC's FSAE car. WebSocket sensor streams, YAML-driven forms across ~10 subteams, automated LDX config injection, RBAC, and audit logging.
Architecture
Three-container Docker Compose stack with Caddy reverse proxy (auto-HTTPS):
- Frontend — Next.js 14 App Router, shadcn/ui, Tailwind, Recharts, SWR
- Backend — FastAPI, SQLModel, SQLite, JWT auth, WebSocket telemetry
- Infra — Caddy TLS termination, volume-mounted SQLite
Key systems
- WebSocket telemetry — DAQ pushes JSON frames to the backend; frontend renders configurable live charts with auto-reconnect and exponential backoff
- YAML-driven forms — config files define field types, tab grouping, lookback diffs, and stale-data detection
- LDX injection — file watcher populates
.ldxXML configs with current form state before test runs - RBAC + audit — per-user subteam scoping; every mutation logged with user, timestamp, old/new value
Source coming soon.
