Welcome to the starter-kit-cyf wiki!

If you're here because you've got an error, maybe it's something like the below:

• failed to connect to server [localhost:27017] on first connect: MongoDB isn't available locally, see MongoDB
• sh: {rimraf,concurrently}: command not found: the required dependencies may not be installed, see Dev setup#installation
• EADDRINUSE: you have something else listening to ports the starter kit wants to use, see Dev setup#ports
• Error: Cannot find module 'path/to/dist/server.js' - you're trying to start the production server without having built the app; don't run npm [run] start locally, see the README for the scripts to run
• Two different lockfiles found: package-lock.json and yarn.lock - you're mixing two different package managers, NPM and Yarn, see Yarn if you want to switch or make everyone stick with NPM
• No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. - this starter kit is set up to use relative routes between the frontend and the backend, e.g. access "/api/something" rather than explicitly writing out "http://localhost:3100/api/something". This avoids CORS and configuration issues in production.
