To initialize the database, first run bundle install, then cd recipes-backend and run rake db:create && rake db:migrate. To start the server for the backend api run rails s. The application is configured to fetch from the default URL on Port 3000, you may navigate to http://localhost:3000/api/v1/recipes to view the json data in your browser if you wish.
To run the application in your browser, cd ../recipes-frontend to enter the front-end react application directory, and run npm start. At this point it should ask you if you would like to run it on a different port because we already have our backend running on port 3000. Choose yes, and it should start the development server in your browser for you automatically.
The application is available as open source under the terms of the MIT License.
