Prerequisites :
node Install Node
mongo Install Mongo

Setup:

npm i

Setup MongoDB Compass to connect your database

In the root of igloo, in the folder called config, modify a file called default.json

In the default.json, setup the keys as -

{
  "mongoUri": <Your MongoDB Connection URI>,
  "jwtSecret": <Any secret key> ,
  "cookiesToken" : <Any string to use as key for cookies>
}

Similarly, in the server itself, there is a folder labelled email Inside that, edit a file called mailCredentials.js In that file,

auth = {
  user: <any valid GMail email ID>,
  pass: <password to that GMail account>
}

module.exports = auth;

Now in the client folder, you'll find a file called config.js

In that,

export const captchaKey = <Your captcha key>

You can get the captcha key from registering a captcha at https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create

In the site, enter any name, choose reCaptcha v2

Under domains, add localhost

Click submit and you'll get the captcha key

You can run using npm run dev in the root folder, this starts the nodeJS server and client server. However it is suggested you open two different terminals

1. nodemon server.js in the first terminal, in the root of the server directory
   
2. cd into client in the other terminal, and run npm start over there
