MERN Stack Application Insights Todo Demo

Browse code

A Mongo + Express + React + Node.js Todo list demonstrating how to instrument your application (and Node.js backend) with Application Insights. Originally cloned from https://github.com/seeschweiler/mern-stack-part-04

Requirements

  • A local mongoDB server, use MongoDB Compass or run mongod in your terminal.

Running the Demo

First start your local mongo server. Either use MongoDB Compass, or use

mongod

The frontend and backend are separate projects -- first start the backend

cd backend
npm install
npm run start

Start the frontend in a new terminal

cd frontend
npm install
npm run start

Future Todos

  • 1 step run via docker so that local mongo is not required
