WHEN I enter schema and seed commands THEN a development database is created and is seeded with test data	COMPLETED
WHEN I enter the command to invoke the application THEN my server is started and the Sequelize models are synced to the MySQL database	COMPLETED
WHEN I open API GET routes in Insomnia for categories, products, or tags THEN the data for each of these routes is displayed in a formatted JSON	COMPLETED

Associations

Executing association methods on the Sequelize models to create the following relationships between them:

• Product belongs to Category, and Category has many Product models, as a category can have multiple products but a product can only belong to one category.

• Product belongs to many Tag models, and Tag belongs to many Product models. Allow products to have multiple tags and tags to have many products by using the ProductTag through model.
