# 3. Server Startup

### 3.1 Start Server and Installation

Go back to your command prompt after completing Step 2.1. Now, use the command:

<mark style="color:red;">**npm run basic-install**</mark>

NOTE: if this step thows issue related to the BUILD failure, then you can follow this steps in your terminal

```
// Considering working directory as projects root directory
> cd installation
> npm run build

// On successful build completion, change directory to root
> cd ..

// Run the server using any of the below commands
> npm run start 
// OR
> node server.js
```

This command will generate <mark style="color:red;">env</mark> files and a build for installation.
