About the app

Actually, there are two separated apps. The Client which serves the FrontEnd (using React), and the API (in Node/Express).

How to run the API

  1. In your terminal, navigate to the api directory.
  2. Run npm install to install all dependencies.
  3. Run npm start to start the app.

How to run the Client

  1. In another terminal, navigate to the client directory.
  2. Run npm install to install all dependencies.
  3. Run npm start to start the app

Check if they are connected

  1. With the two apps running, open your browser in http://localhost:3000/.
  2. If you see a webpage saying Welcome to React, it means the FrontEnd is working.
  3. If the same webpage has the phrase API is working properly, it means the API is working.
  4. Enjoy!
