Run the app locally

Description

Let's make sure you can run the app locally now. We will need to change our version of Node, install our app dependencies, and grab the Spotify Client ID.

Requirements

• Install Node.js ^16.10.
  • Windows
  • Mac
• We are using "yarn" instead of "npm" in this project. To install yarn, run: npm install -g yarn.
• Install the dependencies, run: yarn install.
• Get your Client ID credentials from Spotify https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/applications.
• Make a copy of .env.local.example and rename it to .env.local. Paste in your Spotify Client ID.
• Boot the local server, run yarn start. Make sure you can see this page at http://localhost:3000.
