   2. Use the 'nvm-setup.zip' release asset
   3. Running nvm --version in the terminal will verify successful installation
      1. The terminal may need re-started before the newly installed package is available
3. Run nvm install 16.20.0
4. Run nvm use 16.20.0
   1. Verify node and npm versions are correctly installed by running the following (You may need to restart the teriminal):
      1. node --version
         1. This should show v16.20.0
      2. npm --version
         1. This should show 8.19.4
5. Run npm install
   1. This may take a while to download
6. Run npm start

The default URL for the frontend is localhost:4200/

Backend
