In order to interact with the project it's needed to connect a MongoDB database to it. For example you could use a free MongoDB Atlas instance, which is an online database provided by MongoDB. Check out this page for more information: https://www.mongodb.com/cloud/atlas.
When you got a MongoDB database running you can connect it to the project by adding a .env file to the project. In this file the following needs to be added:
MONGODB_URI = url to database
Make sure the username and password of the database are in the url.
Now you can run the project by entering NPM Start in the terminal. The project should run on: http://localhost:3000
