NOTE

Alexa requires node version 8.2 or less. I suggest using node version manager (nvm) to toggle between versions of node durring development

Install Node and Git on your windows box. There are installers for node nvm mysql and git. just search google.

Send me an email if you want credentials for a database I have set up on the web host to handle the web submission, or install your own database and replance the credentials in the config/config.js file in the api folder.

Open a command prompt and navigate to the api directory. From the command line type

npm istall

this will install all the dependencies required. When completed type:

npm start

This will start the web server and you can then navigate to localhost:3000 to display the site.

Open another command prompt and navigate to the api directory. From the command line type

npm istall

this will install all the dependencies required. When completed type:

This will run the api server which will take the form values and post them to the webdev table on the mysql database.
