I made this project to learn about how Backend Development works, so I haven't worked on making the website responsive [ I am too lazy for that :P ]
```

## Caution
If you do any changes to the scss/css or js files, and you are trying to run it in production mode ( for which you also have to manually
add environment variables in your system), you need to use gulp to compress and process the respective files to reflect the changes.
``` js
gulp build
gulp js /*If js files doesn't appear in the rev.manifest.json in the /public/assets folder. */
```
To run the project in development mode use :
``` bash
npm start
```
To run the project in production mode use:
``` bash
npm run prod_start
```
The application should be running on local host(i.e. http://localhost:8000).
