Thanks for your interest in this project. Here, you will learn how to run this project locally on your machine. It is important to mention that this project is already hosted on Heroku. If you would like to see the live version of this project, please visit: https://bikeshopeu.herokuapp.com/ NB: The hosted version may require some time to fully load.
This project folder is structured as follows: Bikex > bikeshop + bikeshop-backend
- Bikex is the root folder
- Bikeshop is the folder that contains all the files for the client side
- Bikeshop-backend is the folder that contains all the files and logic for the backend.
Follow the following steps to run this project:
on the root folder (bikex) run npm install. This will install all the packages and dependencies used for this project.
You will still need to install another node_modules on the clientside. Therefore, go to or cd into 'bikeshop folder' and run npm install
Now that you have installed all the necessary modules, packages, and dependencies, it is time to start the server and run the project.
Go back to the root folder (bikex) and run the following command:
node bikeshop-backend/server
This will start the development server on port 5000
Go back or cd into the bikeshop folder and run the following command:
npm start
Note: Both backend and frontend must be running at the same time on different servers.
An alternative to Step 3 and 4 is to run npm run dev on the root folder (Bikex) to start both frontend and backend up at the same time.
If all works well, the project will start on [http://localhost:3000] (give it time)
Please note: It could be that some of the dependencies used for this project are deprecated by the time you use the project. Please have this mind. Thank you.
