#-----HOW TO CHECK OUT LOCALLY----- #If you'd like to try the app out locally on your machine, download the project. #Next, you will need to have npm, which is a package manager. It can be installed at https://www.npmjs.com/get-npm #After you have it installed, open the Node.js command prompt that comes with the install. #Cd to the path of the folder where you installed the project. #Cd to either front-end or back-end. #Run 'npm install' without the single quotes to download the dependencies. #Do the same for the other *-end folder. #Cd to the back-end folder and run 'npm start' without hte single quotes. #Next, open another Node.js prompt and Cd to the front-end folder. #Run 'npm start' without the single quotes. After a couple of minutes, you should be prompted with a Yes or No question. Type 'Y' without #the single quotes and hit Enter. #Open a browser, preferrably Google Chrome, and go to 'http://localhost:3001'. You are now running a (cosmetic version of a) #face recognition website locally on your machine! #Register a new user and provide a web link to an image. The site will then draw a box around the object that most likely resembles #a face.
