The frontend is built using create-react-app and server through webpack dev server. To build the dependencies:

• cd client
• (npm -g install yarn (if you do not have yarn already installed, you should))
• yarn install

The backend consists of a Rails 5 API, basic user authentication with JWT. An example user must be manually created in the DB.

• bundle install
• rake db:migrate
• rails c
• User.create!(email: "[email protected]", password: "testpass")

rake start

There is a small helper rake task named start that launches both the webpack-dev-server and the rails server through Foreman. The webpack-dev-server proxies all requests to the Rails API to comply with the Same-Origin Policy.
