Getting Started

Follow the steps below to get a copy of the project up and running on your local machine:

1. Prerequisites: Ensure you have Node.js (v12 or higher) and npm installed on your system.

4. Configure MongoDB: Set up a MongoDB instance or use an existing one. Update the MongoDB connection settings in the appropriate configuration file (if applicable) to ensure the site can connect to the database.

5. Environment Variables: Create a .env file at the root of the project and add any necessary environment variables. Make sure to include any sensitive information in this file, and add it to your .gitignore to keep it from being committed to version control.
