The actual backend that we'll use. Using Django to serve the React frontend as well as the API.
Run the following to get an environment set-up:
python -m pip install venv
python -m venv env
On windows: .\env\Scripts\activate
Unix: source /env/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
Great. Now, to get the Django project going. You can immediately try the following. The first one creates a superuser account for you to use, and the second just starts up the webapp:
cd unfinite-backend/
python manage.py createsuperuser
python manage.py runserver
If one of those doesn't work, it's probably because there's no database. To fix this, just do:
python manage.py migrate
Now, you can try the createsuperuser and runserver commands again. It should work! It will be accessible at http://localhost:8000, locally.
