Starting in development mode on Windows #75

Closed cmon2 closed 4 years ago

cmon2 commented 6 years ago

Hey,

I can't get the app to run in Development mode.

Cleary "NODE_ENV=development PORT=3000 node index.js" won't work on windows so I switched it up with "SET NODE_ENV=development PORT=3000 && node index.js". Still the app will start in production mode on port 80.

Can you give me directions on what I could try further? Also maybe the readme could be updated for windows users.

Thanks for raising this. I agree, the instructions for Windows should be better.

I would actually expect what you have (set NODE_ENV=development PORT=3000 && node index.js) to work and not sure why it doesn't. Using NODE_ENV=development PORT=3000 npm run dev should also work, though is obviously more cumbersome.

I don't have a Windows system to hand right now to investigate further but am going to leave this open until there is a resolution.
