cd sails-admin;
cd backend && npm install && cd ../;
cd frontend && npm install && cd ../;

Localhost Startup

1. perform the Installation steps
2. Then use nf start --wrap or npm start in the sails-admin directory to start both the backend, and frontend together
3. visit http://localhost:1337/v1/<some_api_endpoint> for api calls
4. visit http://localhost:3000/ for the UI/ReactJs/Frontend

Note: By defaullt sails-admin uses sails-disk for development, the docker install shows how to use docker containers with a mysql database.

Example docker-compose.yml (For Production)

This will start three containers, the database, frontend/nginx, and the sails backend api. All three containers will bind mount docker volumes to /backend, /backend/mysql, and /frontend so make sure you run npm i in each backend and frontend folder first and run npm run build in frontend folder if you've made code changes.
