git clone git@github.com:techstartucalgary/fashion.git

2. cd into the backend directory.

cd backend

3. Run npm install to install all the dependencies.

npm install

4. Run npm run test to start the server.

npm run test

🚧 Development Environment

6. Update your prisma/schema.prisma file within the backend folder to use the mysql provider and set the relation mode type to prisma.

datasource db {
  provider     = "mysql"
  url          = env("DATABASE_URL")
  relationMode = "prisma"
}

7. Once you are ready to push your schema to PlanetScale, run prisma db push against your PlanetScale database to update the schema in your database.

npx prisma db push

🌟 Frontend Documentation
