Ports

There is a file named .env in the backend directory, in this file you can change the API port and the socket port.

For this application to work outside a local network, the ports for the sockets, backend and frontend application need to be forwarded in the router. The frontend runs on the port 5000 by default. The other ports can be adjusted in the .env file.
