Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following software installed on your system:

• Node.js (which includes npm)

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine for development and testing purposes.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-username/stream-code.git
   cd stream-code

2. Install dependencies for both the frontend and backend: For the frontend:

   # Copy code
   npm install
   

3. Running the Application

   Start the Frontend:

   # Make sure you are in the frontend directory
   npm start
   

This command starts the React application in development mode. Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

4. Start the Backend:

   # Make sure you are in the frontend directory
   npm run server:dev
   

This will launch the Node.js/Express server on http://localhost:3001 (or your configured port), which handles real-time communication via Socket.io.
