As a developer, I would like to have documentation I can refer to for helping me set up my local machine to run the Complaint Manger V2.
FYI readme is not the same as a wiki, readme is to set up the application
User story
When I visit the Readme page,
I should be able to see all of the relevant information for using and developing the Complaint Manager 2.0,
So that I can effectively understand and contribute to the code base
