Build Process

• 1st Build Frontend (optional, required only if you make changes to frontend code )
• Then Build Backend (backend build script will copy UI code build above into itself)

To build frontend (optional step)

# run these commands from web-ui folder

yarn install
yarn build

To build backend

# run these commands from root folder where top-level pom.xml is present

# build the web app
mvn clean install

# Run The App 
java -jar ./web-api/target/modules/web-api-1.0.0.jar

Once the App is running

URL for the web app	http://localhost:8080 or http://localhost:8080/ui/index.html
URL for API Docs	http://localhost:8080/api-docs/index.html
BaseURL for REST APIs	http://localhost:8080/api
