Starting the application

First time setup

Before starting the application we advise the creation of a python virtual env, done with the following command

python3 -m venv venv

This will create a virtual environment called venv in which we are going to install all the required modules with the command.

source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.in

This is the setup needed for the backend. In another terminal we are going to setup the frontend. This is done in the following way.

cd web-app/src
npm install

This will install all of the node.js module needed for our project.

After first setup start

To start the application we are going to need two terminals the first for the backend must run

source venv/bin/activate
python3 main.py

The frontend must run:

cd web-app/src
npm run dev

This will boot the application and make it available in local
