Frontend Setup

This guide helps you install the dependencies for the frontend. Since we're using Docker, this step isn't necessary to run the app. However, the step is useful to get better IDE support and to debug docker issues.

Node.js and npm

The frontend uses Node.js and npm to manage dependencies and run commands. You should have Node,js v23 installed on your device.

If you're using nvm, you can install Node.js v23 by running:

nvm install 23
nvm use 23

Installing Dependencies

To install the dependencies, follow these steps:

cd frontend
npm install

This will install the required dependencies from the package.json file.

Running the Frontend

To run the frontend development server, use the following command:

cd frontend
npm run dev

This will use Vite to start the development server, and it will be accessible at http://localhost:5173 by default.
