Make two new folders named server & client and then run the commands below (in each folder) in Terminal on Ubuntu/Linux/macOS.

• Generate the 8192 bit RSA keys using,

  openssl genrsa -out privatekey.pem 8192 to generate the private key

  openssl rsa -in privatekey.pem -pubout -out publickey.pem to generate the public key.

Change directories again (where package.json is located).

Run npm install to automatically install all dependencies required by this project.
