Local deployment of frontend

Requirements:

• npm
  • the easiest way to install npm is by installing node-js (https://nodejs.org/en/download/). An installer for Windows and macOS is available. Linux Users can either compile the source code, or install via a package manager (https://nodejs.org/en/download/package-manager/)
  • the official npm website offers some alternatives for installing npm (https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm). I've had succes with nvm-installer on windows.

Steps

Being in the main repository directory:

1. cd bananza-frontend/

2. npm install

3. To use the developer server, run: npm run dev To use the production server, run: npm run build then npm run start The developer server takes less time to start up, but the production server is faster when it comes to running the application.
