Enter the repository directory (`/SwampScheduler`) and install the dependencies (Next.js, Tailwind CSS, etc.):

```shell
cd app
cd SwampScheduler
npm install
```

### Usage:

- In the web-app directory:
- **Development:** Run `npm run dev` to run the development server locally (with hot reloading).
- **Production:** Run `npm run build` to build the app to `/app/dist`.
- **Production:** Run `npm run build` to build the app to `/.next`.
- By default, SwampSchedueler listens on port `3000`. To change the port, edit the scripts object in 'package.json' like so where # = 'your port number'.
```javascript
"scripts": {
"dev": "next dev -p #", // for dev
"start": "next start -p #" // for production
}
```
- Our current working pages can be found in the /app/ directory. An example of a working url is `/api/terms/all` which returns a list of all terms from the UF SOC.
