Once you have cloned the repository:
1.- cd employees
2.- mvn spring-boot:run (or you can also run the project from IntelliJ)
At this point the spring application should be up and running on port 8080
3.- cd ../employees-client
4.- npm install
5.- npm run serve
At this point the Employees UI should be served in your localhost and should be ready to use.
IMPORTANT:
Port 8080 should be available for Tomcat before running mvn spring-boot:run, the BE application and FE application each run in their own domain, and the FE webapp is configured to consume the services at http://localhost:8080.
