Getting Started with Development

The project requires that Node v16+ be installed on the development machine in order to build and run the project. Personally, I use nvs, but it can be installed in many other ways.

Once the requirements are setup:

1. Clone the repository
2. From the project root run npm install
3. (Optional) Create an .env file in the project root with the appropriate values, based on .env.example.
   • The project with run without this, but will throw errors when initializing Application Insights.
4. Run npm run dev to build the site AND host it at http://localhost:8080/.

...and you should be up and running!
