We'll use this code as a starting point for exploring how to authenticate users within a React app.
The first time you run this app, make sure to run npm install first, to install needed dependencies. Then, to run the app and see it in your browser, you can run
npm run dev
This will run the app using Vite's development server. You should be able to visit the running app by viewing http://localhost:5173 to view the app in your browser. The development server is set up to use "Hot Module Replacement" (HMR), so the app will automatically reload in your browser if you make edits to the code.
Note that this app also has a separate API server in server.js. You can run this server on port 8000 by running:
npm run api
The Vite app config in vite.config.js is set up to proxy requests from the client for URLs beginning with /api to the API server.
