Running Locally

1. Clone the repository
2. Create a .env file at the root directory and add your JWT_SECRET(String, used to generate user tokens) to it.

JWT_SECRET = "my_secret"

3. Run the server using cargo run or build a binary using cargo b

If getting a Linker error for sqlite3.lib, add the deps dir as an env variable

$Env:SQLITE3_LIB_DIR = "<path-to-repo>\deps"

Note: When building a binary, you also need to copy the static directory and put it in the same directory as the binary.
