Development Details

This project was developed on March 11, 2024, as part of my Node.js learning journey. It was created exclusively by me as part of homework from the IT Step Academy.

Notice

Important: I have removed the MongoDB connection URL at the sixth line in script.js for security reasons. To run the project, you will need to replace const DB_URL = "mongodb://..." with your own MongoDB connection string.

Getting Started

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/zabavb/ToDoList-js-node.js.git

2. Install the required dependencies:

   npm install

3. Replace the DB_URL in script.js (line 6) with your MongoDB connection string.
4. Start the application:

   npm start

5. Open http://localhost:3000 in your browser to use the app.

Installing and Running Node.js

To run this project, you'll need Node.js installed. Follow these instructions:

1. Go to the official Node.js website and download the latest stable version.
2. Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions.
3. Verify the installation by running:

   node -v

   This should return the installed version of Node.js.
4. Then check for npm:

   npm -v

   This should return the npm version.
