About the setup

This project is set up with Parcel Bundler, an npm package that compiles our frontend assets and comes with an integrated development server.

The dev server runs on port 1234 by default, but will use another if 1234 is being used by another application.

The API runs on port 4000, and will not work if this port is being used by another process. You can easily kill a process hogging the port using fkill-cli, all you have to do is run the command fkill :4000
