Setup

1. Make sure you run the npm install command to install all the libraries used in this repository.
2. Create a .env file and declare your Database URL under the variable DB_URL.

DB_URL=<your database url>

3. In the root directory, run npm run generateKeys to generate a pair of public & private keys, which will be used to sign/verify the JWT token. .gitignore file will ignore these keys, and will not publish to remote repository.

You need to have the mongo command running either in a terminal in the background, or in the your IDE terminal.
Once you have the database server running, just run npm start command to start the development server.
