Hi everyone.
I recently started learning JavaScript, and I'm currently working on a small project using Node.js, React or Next.js and Three.js.
Since I'm still learning, I sometimes get stuck and would really appreciate some help or guidance from developers who have experience with these technologies.
If any one is willing to help or answer a few questions about the project, please let me know or DM me. Thanks!!!

What kind of help you need ? Ask here.
Bigeye tunaOP
Mr. RxvxntxN, nice to meet you.
Giant panda
You too , What kind of help you need ?
Bigeye tunaOP
I've learned for about 10 months. I have a project. But I can't run it.
Giant panda
You need to be specific about the problem you're stuck on.
Bigeye tunaOP
I installed node modules using npm and ran it using the command "npm start".
But the project doesn't work. I can't see any errors in my cmd.
Giant panda
You mentioned that you are learning 10 months and did you made a project yourself ? Show me package.json
Bigeye tunaOP
No, this is my client's project. This is my first project. So...
Giant panda
Can you show me package.json in your project ?
Bigeye tunaOP
Giant panda
Could you tell me which tech stack was used in this project?
Bigeye tunaOP
Node.js/React/Next.js/Three.js
Giant panda
have you run npm install first ?
Bigeye tunaOP
Of course.
Giant panda
are folders in same directory ?
Bigeye tunaOP
Yes.
Giant panda
still not running with "npm start" ? what is error you get ?
Bigeye tunaOP
No errors.
Giant panda
can you check the terminal output for urls ?
I believe you are running npm start in wrong folder
Bigeye tunaOP
No, right folder.
This is ".env" file

PORT=5000
MONGO_URI= mongodb://localhost:27017/project

Giant panda
is your MongoDB installed ?
Bigeye tunaOP
Yeah.
Giant panda
And is it running ?
Bigeye tunaOP
Yes.
Giant panda
check terminal mongosh
show it to me
Bigeye tunaOP
The result is "command not found".
Giant panda
That means MongoDB is not installed 😐
Bigeye tunaOP
Giant panda

Hi, Judy
can you share me the project?
Giant panda
did you connect mongo in your project ?
Bigeye tunaOP
i did it.
thanks superstar.
Pomeranian
let me find out what
is wrong in my local.
how can you send me the project?
Giant panda
Can you check if your mongodb is running ?
with bash terminal
Bigeye tunaOP
of course running.
Pomeranian
Judy
Bigeye tunaOP
Mr RxvxnxN. Could you run my project, please?
Giant panda
try MongoDB Server , MongoDB name could be anything
Pomeranian
please share your project here, Judy
Giant panda
or try net start | find "MongoDB"
"MongoDB" could be anything in your project
Also, Just because you can see the MongoDB version doesn't mean the database server is running.
Bigeye tunaOP
I'm uploading my project. Please run it and send me the screenshot.
Pomeranian
ok
Giant panda
You don't have to upload project. You have to do it by yourself. Aren't you learning ?
Bigeye tunaOP
Pomeranian
ok, let me try, judy
Giant panda
It is simple task , you have to run MongoDB.

After that , Try npm start

if that doesn't work , try separate bash terminal and run it together , npm run server and npm run client
Bigeye tunaOP
Mr. RxvxntxN, I did it. If there is problem in my project, ....
Pomeranian
oh, no there is error.......
is this a completed project?
ah, it's working
judy
your issue might be by the port number.
RxvxntxN
how do you think?
Bigeye tunaOP
I can't believe SuperStar.
please send me the screenshot.
Bigeye tunaOP
Mr. RxvxntxN....
Giant panda
Hey Judy,

Since you're learning, I would recommend taking some time to understand:

- How to start MongoDB manually vs as a service

- How to check if MongoDB is actually running (using mongo or mongosh)

- What the terminal output means when you run npm run server and npm run client
