Installation Tutorial

Welcome to the TutorBase wiki!

Local Environment Setup:

1) Install Node.js:

https://nodejs.org/en/download/

2) Create a folder and clone the directory from GitHub using the line below

$ git clone https://github.com/DangItJason/TutorBase.git

Note: If you are using WSL2 and experience issues running the frontend/updating the frontend in real time, you may need to clone the TutorBase repository to WSL directly. In other words, navigate to a directory such as /home by typing cd followed by the clone command above.

3) Install dependencies:

Dependencies must be installed for both the client and server folders.

$ cd client
$ npm install
$ cd ../server
$ npm install

4) Starting the application

Run each set of commands in separate terminals.

To start the client (front-end):
$ cd client
$ npm start

To start the server (back-end):
$ cd server
$ npm start
