Running the server and viewing the project

With the starter code downloaded and dependencies installed, now's the time to open the code in your IDE or text editor. This one I'm using is PhpStorm, but you can use whatever you like.

Looking at the completed version of the app we're about to build, you can see that we're able to perform search queries that return a response.

The point is, we have a Node.js backend that handles those queries, along with the file serving.
