Setup

After getting a copy of the repo and cding into the root of the app, run the following in the terminal:

$ npm init
$ mongod

This will install all the app's dependencies as listed in the package.json file and then run mongo.

Now open a new terminal tab or process and run:

$ gulp

This will build all the files and run the server for you.

Now that we have the DB and server up, it's time to open a new tab or process again and run:

$ gulp watch

The gulp watch command is optional, but I highly recommended it if you don't want to constantly run all the gulp tasks to compile the assets yourself every time you make a change to css or js files needed on the frontend.

Happy Coding
