Firebase Studio

This is a Next.js starter project for Firebase Studio. It's a talent and project discovery platform called "CrewUp".

To get started, take a look at src/app/page.tsx.

A Note for Beginners: Where is the HTML?

If you're new to modern web development, you might be looking for an index.html file. This project is built with Next.js, a React framework that generates web pages dynamically. Instead of static .html files, pages are created from TypeScript files (ending in .tsx) located in the src/app directory. The development server you'll run in the steps below handles the process of turning this code into a viewable website in your browser.

Running Locally

To run this application on your local machine, please follow these step-by-step instructions.

Step 1: Download the Complete Project

Ensure you have downloaded the entire project folder. The project relies on configuration files located in the root directory, so the src folder alone is not enough.

Step 2: Open Your Command Prompt or Terminal

Navigate to the root directory of your downloaded project folder.

Step 3: Install Dependencies

Once you are inside the project's root directory, run the following command to install all the required packages:

npm install

This command reads the package.json file and installs all the necessary libraries for the project to function.

Step 4: Run the Development Server

After the installation is complete, you can start the local development server with this command:

npm run dev

This will start the application in development mode.

Step 5: View Your Application

Open your web browser and go to http://localhost:9002. You should now see your application running!
