This is simply for server setup, and getting started.

Check out some Plugins to get everything working!

# 1. Programs to Install

Install these programs.

Git
Node.js

- Ensure that if you are running it locally, do not set a database password.
- When you move your server to production use something like MongoDB Atlas
