Activating Backend and Frontend Here is the updated markdown content:

To activate the backend and frontend of the project, follow the steps below:

Backend Activation

1. Install Git on your system. You can download it from the official website or use a package manager like Homebrew (for macOS) or apt-get (for Ubuntu).

2. Clone the repository using the following command:

   git clone https://github.com/Rtarun3606k/SIH_Prototype_public.git
   

3. Navigate to the backend directory:

   cd prototype/backend
   

4. Install virtualenv and activate the environment. Virtualenv allows you to create isolated Python environments for your projects. To install virtualenv, run the following command:

   pip install virtualenv
   

   Once installed, create a new virtual environment:

   virtualenv env
   

   Activate the environment:

   • For Windows:

     .\env\Scripts\activate
     

   • For macOS/Linux:

     source env/bin/activate
     

5. Install the required dependencies. Make sure you are in the backend directory and the virtual environment is activated. Run the following command:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   

   This will install all the necessary Python packages specified in the requirements.txt file.

6. Run the application. Ensure you are still in the backend directory and the virtual environment is active. Execute the following command:

   python wsgi.py
   

Frontend Activation

The frontend of the application is built with React. To activate the frontend, follow these steps:

1. Open a terminal window.
2. Navigate to the frontend directory using the command cd prototype/frontend.
3. Install the required dependencies by running npm install.
4. Start the frontend development server with the command npm run dev.

Platform-Specific Commands

  • Start the frontend development server: npm run dev

macOS/Linux

• Frontend Activation:
