I saw that from before when Marko and I were fixing some back-end parts, the gitignore does not actually ignore node_modules as we have node_modules instead of /node_modules. Would it be possible fix this on this PR as well and delete the node_modules folder so it is not on the repo?

I see it. node_modules/ should is right format. It may because node_modules folder has already on github, so it can't be ignore. Could you delete directly node_modules folder on github when you review? It should won't be uploaded on github next time.

I have deleted node_modules directory both on main and 4-back-end-setup branches on github. We can see if it will be ignored next time.
