A step by step series of examples that tell you how to get a development env running.
To install the client dependencies, run this in both the getdo-client and getdo-server folders from the command-line:
npm install
If you are not running a local MongoDB cluster on the default port, configure it manually in the file getdo-server/variables.env
DB_MONGO="YOUR MONGODB URI"
To run the server application, navigate to the getdo-server folder and run this in the command-line:
npm run dev
To run the client application, navigate to the getdo-client folder and run this in another command-line:
npm start
Notice that you need client and server runs concurrently in different terminal session, in order to make them communicate to each other.
