# Getting Started (Local Server)

## First Time Project Set-Up

Becoming a super hero is a fairly straight forward process:

```
git clone https://github.com/chingu-voyage4/Bears-Team-11.git
git remote add upstream https://github.com/chingu-voyage4/Bears-Team-11.git
npm install -g create-react-app
npm install
cd Bears-Team-11/
npm start
```

## **Setting Up MongoDB**

* Install [MongoDB Community Server](https://www.mongodb.com/download-center?jmp=tutorials#community). Follow [install instructions](https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-windows/)
* Install [MongoDB Compass](https://www.mongodb.com/download-center?filter=enterprise#compass) (for local copy of mongodb)

## Running the Local Server

* `npm run start-server` runs the express server on port `8080`.
* Go to your mongodb files (ex with Windows, C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\3.6\bin) and start mongod.exe and mongo.exe
* Start MongoDB Compass
