How to run the API

• Fork and clone the project onto your computer
• Double click the solution file to open in Visual Studios Community
• You must add an appsettings.json file with your connection string
• Once you've correctly added it and called it in your Startup.cs file, you are ready to run the app.
• Click the down arrow next to the green triangle (the run button) and choose the Kestral option (not IIS)
• Once you have chosen the Kestral Server Option (it should say Mock_BestBuy_API next to the green triangle) run the API

If you followed all the steps above, then you should see a browser full of JSON.

Use Postman to help you query the API!
