Project branching structure

Due to complications with some of the GitHub Actions this project uses, the git branch structure is non-standard.

  1. dev: This is the main branch of the project. All PRs should be merged into this branch, as if it was "main".
  2. main: This is the "production-ready" branch of the project; dev should only be merged into main when it is at a presentable state.

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

yarn start

Runs the app in the development mode, with hot-reload support from nodemon.
The server will be accessible from http://localhost:3001, and will reload if you make edits.
