Welcome to the monorepo for the UAS Ground Communications project. It houses the channel of communication between the drone and the web-app for waypoints, drone-actions and status updates.

It contains 3 main sub-projects:

1. web-frontend provides the user interface for operators
2. web-backend acts as the central server coordinating data flow and business logic
3. mission-planner handles low-level drone communication and flight operations
4. integration-testing provides integration testing for the connection between mission-planner and web-backend

Data flows from the drone through mission-planner → web-backend → web-frontend, with real-time updates pushed via WebSockets for live telemetry and status information.

The connection works like this:

• mission-planner interacts directly with the drone, and exposes a mavlink connection for interactions with the web-backend.
• The web-backend exposes a REST API for the web-frontend to communicate with.
