These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes. See deployment for notes on how to deploy the project on a live system.
To run the website on your local machine you would need two things:
- A local HTTP WEB Server
- Database Management System (DBMS)
There are many softwares available you can use to start localhost. I recomend Apache Web Server and PostgreSQL just because they are open-source and available on all platforms (Linux, Mac , Windows)
Follow the link below for Instructions on how to Install Apache Web Server on you computer
