To setup the project and get it running, clone the repository into your system and follow the steps.

Frontend

The frontend is build using reactJS. Dependencies for this project would be Node v12+ and yarn.

cd web
yarn install
yarn start

Your client would be running at port 3000.

Backend

Dependencies to run the server would be python 3.

Step 1: Env configuration.

cd backend
virtualenv myenv
source myenv/Scripts/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

Step 2: Setup the firebase credentials and the .env configuration, more information available here.
Step 3: Run the server.

cd backend
export FLASK_APP=main.py
export FLASK_ENV=development
flask run

Your server would be running at port 5000.

For local development, the server must be running in order to successfully query from the frontend, so make sure server runs before running the React app.
