npm install

optionally you can install nodemon which will monitor your source code and automatically restarts your server when detects any changes. To install nodemon use:

npm install -g nodemon

2. Add Your Auth0 Credentials

open the environment.ts and environment.prod.ts files located at ng-src/src/environments/ folder, and add your Auth0 Client ID and Auth0 Domain name.
