Installation Instructions

It is very simple to get this project running on your computer.

Step 1: Node.js installation

Go to the official node.js website. Download node.js. I would recommend the version for all users, which should be on the left. Next, follow the installation instructions and make sure node.js is successfully installed.

Step 2: Copying this repostiory

Go to this repository and download all the files. Make sure they are all in the same folder.

Step 3: Getting the file path

Copy the file path to the directory where all the files are. Do not go into the client folder.

Step 4: Getting into the directory with comman prompt

Open command prompt(cmd) by searching for it in the programs list. Next, run this command cd <Path to folder>. Replace Path to folder with the file path you copied except the part which is repeated before the code entry. If your file path copied is C:\Users\ME\Desktop\MessO and it shows C:\Users\ME> _ the path to folder is Desktop\MessO.

Step 5:

Run the command node app This will run the project.

Step 6: Viewing the project in localhost

Open your browser and go to localhost:8080. Enjoy. Go to command prompt and do ctrl + c to stop the program.
