Running the Project Locally

To run this project on your local machine, follow these steps:

1. Clone the Repository: Clone this repository to your local machine:

   git clone <repository_url>

2. Navigate to Project Directory: Move into the project directory:

   cd <project_directory>

3. Install Dependencies: Install the necessary dependencies using npm or yarn:

   npm install

   or

   yarn

4. Setup Environment Variables: Create a .env file in the root of your project directory and add the following variables:

   MONGODB_URI=your_mongodb_uri PORT=5000 CLIENT_PORT=3000

   Replace your_mongodb_uri with your MongoDB connection URI. Customize the PORT and CLIENT_PORT variables if needed.

5. Start the Development Server: Run the following command to start the development server:

   npm start

6. Access the App: Open your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000 to access the app. You can now use the app locally on your machine, connected to your MongoDB database using the URI specified in the .env file.

7. Note: The project may not work if you do not install dependencies in both front end and backend. So you would have to apply step 2 and 3 twice, once in frontend and once in backend.
