- From the root directory, go to the server by running cd server, then run npm install && npm start. This will install the server packages and start the server on localhost.
- From the root directory, go to the client by running cd client, and then run npm install.
- Connect your mobile device to your system via USB.
- Run
npm run expo start --localhost --android. This will run the app on your device, and the home screen will be displayed.
