Server

.env file

Rename .env.example to .env and fill in database connection strings, JWT secret and your client and server production URLs.

#db
MONGO_URI_DEV=mongodb://localhost:27017/worklogsystem
MONGO_URI_PROD=

#jwt
JWT_SECRET_DEV=secret
JWT_SECRET_PROD=

#site urls
SERVER_URL_DEV=http://localhost:5000
SERVER_URL_PROD=
FRONTEND_URL=http://localhost:3000

Install dependencies

$ cd server
$ npm install

Run the server

You are good to go, server will be available on http://localhost:5000

$ npm run server

Client

Just install the dependencies and run the dev server. App will load on http://localhost:3000.

$ cd client
$ npm install
$ npm start

That's it as far for development setup.

Database setup

But before that you need MongoDB database, so go to MongoDB Atlas, create cluster, whitelist all IPs and get database URL. Set that URL in .env file as MONGO_URI_PROD.

MONGO_URI_PROD=mongodb+srv://<your-username-here>:<your-password-here>@cluster0-abcd.mongodb.net/test?retryWrites=true&w=majority
