StoryLoom

Instructions to Run StoryLoom

To get StoryLoom up and running on your local machine, follow these steps:

1. Unzip the project:

   unzip StoryLoom

2. Navigate into the project directory:

   cd StoryLoom

3. Install dependencies:

   npm install

4. Start the server first before the dev:

   npm run start:server

5. Start npm dev:

   npm run dev

The project should be up and running in your browser (preferably the most updated version of Google Chrome) at localhost.

Note: Sometimes, it is possible that ports can have other processes running. Please make sure to kill those processes first before you run the project. A basic check can be followed like this,

    lsof -i :3000

If any processes are running, those will be listed with their PID after this command. You need to kill them first. Let's say, there is a process with PID 455555, so, the next command would look like,

    kill -9 455555 

General Format:

    kill -9 PID_OF_THE_LISTED_PROCESS 

After these steps, there should not be any problem. If there are still issues, let us know. Thank you.
