After a clean clone the process is:

  • yarn setup - install all deps in all folders, migrates DB, and creates frontend/.env and server/.env

Next: make sure that
server/.env.development has the the keys you want set. When you edit server-side code and the backend hot-reloads anything you saved in the ENV prior will be lost and all that will remain is what is in the file. So ensure that VECTOR_DATABASE, LLM_PROVIDER, and EMBEDDING_ENGINE are all set.

frontend/.env has a single useful key. If you are building on localhost the API_BASE (server) runs on 3001 so
VITE_API_BASE='http://localhost:3001/api'

Then next all that that should be needed is from root:
yarn dev:server to run backend with hot-reloading - port :3001
yarn dev:frontend to run frontend with hot-reloading - port :3000
yarn dev:collector to run document processor with hot-reloading - port : 8888
