In order to run the application, you will need to have some prerequisite tools installed.
First, you'll need to be able to run docker-compose command. If you are able to install Docker with Docker Desktop, that is probably the easiest solution.
Second, you'll need NodeJS for both the client and server applications. I recommend you use nvm or nvm-windows and make sure to use the same version of node found in the .nvmrc file at the root of the project. You can run nvm use from the root of the project to make sure you're using the same version of node as me.
With the everything installed and with Docker running on your machine, you can launch a docker container running redis-json, the backend Nest JS application, and the front-end react application by running the following from the root of the project.
npm run startThe project root's package.json file and its npm scripts are basically just for convenience of running all applications and a database at once.
You can also run these applications separately by running the appropriate npm scripts inside of each project's package.json file.
This repo contains a tutorials folder holding a document for each of the video lessons. These are not intended to be well-written, thorough documents. However these will hold the scripts, or notes, that I use to create the videos with code snippets and images. Therefore, you may find these documents useful for copying and pasting some code, or to review content from the videos in a more efficient manner.
Or, heck, skip the videos all together. It's not like I'm in this for the money (though feel free to send me vast sums of money or offer lucrative jobs). Making niche, long video tutorials will never garner much viewership. I'd be making general info videos or crash-courses if that's what I wanted.
