Workshop 3: Saturday June 8, 2024#

Below are the slides from today’s class embedded and linked here.

Pre-Workshop Tasks#

Your pre-workshop work will ensure that you’re set up for our in-class activities this Saturday! It should take about 5 minutes (or less), and if you do get stuck, ask your TAs in lab, or post in the #workshop-3 channel.

  1. Install node if you haven’t already. You should already have it though.

  2. Create a new folder for your backend server and cd into it, run npx express-generator --no-view

  3. This will setup a basic express application that we will work from during the workshop.

  4. Run an npm install && npm run start to start the express application.

  5. Navigate to http://localhost:3000 to ensure that it is running.

  6. (Optional) Install Postman.

  7. (Optional) Familiarize yourself with this repo. This will be the frontend that will be used during class.

That’s it !
