To do (Add to this and use `content` to show its done)

Download & install: vscode or any editor of your choice
Download & install: nodejs this is needed to host the website
Download & install: git this is so we can use git from the commandline
Once this is done we have to init the local repo
In vscode use Ctrl+~ to open up a terminal and go to a directory where you want the repo to live: type in git clone https://github.com/rayaman/pcrebels.git Note: This creates a folder named after the repo
Next once that is done run npm install This will install all the node modules that we need to run the server
And with that everything should be stable and runnable
You will need to create a file called dev.env inside of the config folder. This is where we put private variables that we dont want being committed. The .gitignore file makes sure that we dont commit this file
Now let's test to see if things worked
- There are 2 ways to run the code
- npm start This is how the webhost will run our code
- npm test This uses nodemon which reloads our code automatically when we make any changes and makes dev work eaiser. (Use npm test when you can)
Once you got the code running go to http://localhost:3000/ and see if something comes up.
