     might need, might not

     SET PATH=C:\Program Files\Nodejs;%PATH%

3. Install npm packages

   npm install

4. Start backend and frontend

   python manage.py makemigrations
   python manage.py migrate auth
   python manage.py migrate app_name
   python manage.py migrate
   python manage.py runserver

   Notes for failures: comment out all django_heroku things in the settings.py file. delete "from exec" in the manage.py file change in requirements.txt file, python-decouple==3.1 make sure env file is there. (usually gives config or decouple errors) and named .env include these to the ALLOWED_HOSTS in settings.py: 'localhost', 'localhost/', '127.0.0.1', '127.0.0.1/',

and lastly, make sure you use the url http://127.0.0.1:8080/ when going to the site. very specific... lol
