Additional step about database setup in user guide

Opened this issue · 0 comments

Hello! I ran into some errors when following along the tutorial and these were what I did to fix them:

  • Ensuring the database specified in databases.json exists in the local Postgres server (e.g. running 'CREATE DATABASE nodejs-starter-dev' command in psql shell)
  • Adding username and password keys in databases.json
  • Installing Sequelize CLI and applying migrations to create the 'Users' table (https://sequelize.org/master/manual/migrations.html)

I'm not sure if it was just me missing something but it feels like the guide might benefit from an additional step about database setup.
Would appreciate any thoughts on this. Thanks!
