Technology Used

Step 1: Install dependencies

From the project root:

npm run install:all

Or install each workspace separately:

cd server && npm install
cd ../client && npm install

Step 2: Create environment file

Copy the example file:

copy server\.env.example server\.env

For macOS/Linux:

cp server/.env.example server/.env

Step 3: Configure server environment

Open server/.env and update:

MONGODB_URI=mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/swiggy_clone
PORT=5000
JWT_SECRET=your-secret-key-change-in-production
CLIENT_URL=http://localhost:5173

The Vite development server proxies /api and /uploads to:

http://localhost:5000

No client .env is required in development when default ports are used.

Step 4: Seed the database

Make sure MongoDB is running, then run:

npm run seed

The seed command clears collections and inserts demo data such as admin, users, vendors, restaurants, menu items, coupons, and sample order records.

Step 5: Start the API

npm run server

This runs the backend server with watch mode.

Step 6: Start the React app

Open a second terminal and run:

npm run client

Open:

http://localhost:5173

Production Build

cd client
npm run build
npm run preview

The production build is generated inside:

client/dist

Application URLs

Admin Login

Demo Customer Login

Demo Vendor Login

All seeded vendors use:

Vendor@123

Seeded vendors are marked as approved, so they can access the partner dashboard immediately.
