Usage

  1. Update package.json by replacing the placeholders for name, version, and description.
  2. Update git origin 
    git remote remove origin
git remote add origin <url>
git push -u origin master
  3. Install all required dependencies by running npm install.
  4. Begin coding in the src/main.ts file.
  5. Start the server in development mode with npm run dev.
