This project was bootstrapped with Create React App. Then an Express server was added in the server
directory. The server is proxied via the proxy
key in package.json
.

Clone the project, change into the directory and install the dependencies.

Create a .env
file for environment variables in your server.
You can start the server on its own with the command:

Run the React application on its own with the command:
npm start
Run both applications together with the command:
npm run dev
