These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Your machine should have Npm(or Yarn) and Node.js installed to use it locally.

1. First fork the repo 🍴 to your account.
   Go to the forked repo and clone it 👥 to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/Your_Username/NodeBackend.git

This will make a copy of the code to your local machine.

2. Now move to the NodeBackend directory.

cd NodeBackend

3. Now check the remote of your local code by:

git remote -v

The response should look like:

origin	https://github.com/Your_Username/NodeBackend.git (fetch)
origin	https://github.com/Your_Username/NodeBackend.git (push)

To add upstream to remote, run:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/AnnadataHackfest/NodeBackend.git

Again run git remote -v, the response should look like:

origin	https://github.com/Your_Username/NodeBackend.git (fetch)
origin	https://github.com/Your_Username/NodeBackend.git (push)
upstream	https://github.com/AnnadataHackfest/NodeBackend (fetch)
upstream	https://github.com/AnnadataHackfest/NodeBackend (push)

4. Once the remote is set, install all the necessary dependencies by the following command:

npm install

Run the below command to start the server:

npm run dev
