Before we begin, make sure you have a fresh version of Node.js and NPM installed. The current Long Term Support (LTS) release is an ideal starting point.
To begin, fork this repository and clone ir to your computer:
https://github.com/vannizhang/MudslideApp-server.git
From the project's root directory, install the required packages (dependencies):
npm install
Now you can start the node.js web server:
# it will start a server instance and begin listening for connections from localhost on port 8500
node index.js
