## Getting Started
To get a local copy up and running follow these simple steps.
### Prerequisites
Make sure you have Node.js and MongoDB installed on your local machine.
### Installation
1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone [https://github.com//inventory-management-system](https://github.com/Alekrish-12/inventory-management-system).git
```
2. Navigate into the project directory:
```bash
cd inventory-management-system
```
3. Install dependencies for the backend and frontend:
```bash
cd backend # Navigate to backend directory
npm install # Install backend dependencies
cd ../frontend # Navigate to frontend directory
npm install # Install frontend dependencies
## Backend Setup
1. Ensure MongoDB is running on your local machine.
2. Configure MongoDB connection in `backend/server.js`.
3. Start the backend server:
```bash
cd backend
node server.js
```
The backend server should now be running on `http://localhost:5000`.
## Frontend Setup
1. Start the frontend development server:
```bash
cd frontend
npm start
```
The frontend should open automatically in your default browser at `http://localhost:3000`.
## Usage
- Use the frontend interface (`http://localhost:3000`) to interact with the inventory management system.
- Perform CRUD operations on products, manage stock levels, view reports, etc.
