To get setup, download this code, and then run the following commands in the root directory of the app.
npm install
npm run migrate
npm run seed
npm install
downloads all the libraries that we depend on.npm run migrate
setups a database for us to use.npm run seed
adds some sample data to our database.Once you have run all of those, we can simply start the app with
npm start
This should start the app, and we can see it by going to http://localhost:3001 in the browser.
To update the application, just change any of the code, save it, and the app should automatically update. Just refresh the page to see the impact of your changes.
If you ever need to reset the database, then:
dev.sqlite3
file.npm run migrate
and npm run seed
again to re-make and re-populate the database.
