📋 Installation Guide

1️⃣ Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/adptCode/starwars.git
cd starwars

2️⃣ Install Dependencies

npm install

3️⃣ Run Fake Backend

This application requires a mock backend for authentication, you must set it up using json-server-auth. Ensure you have json-server-auth installed globally or install it in your project.

npx json-server-auth db.json --port 3000

This will start the fake backend server at http://localhost:3000/.

4️⃣ Start the Development Server

ng serve -o

This command will compile the application and automatically open it in your default browser at http://localhost:4200/. The application supports hot-reloading, so any changes you make to the source files will reflect in real-time.

• People: https://swapi.py4e.com/api/people/
• Planets: https://swapi.py4e.com/api/planets/
