+$ go run main.go
+```
+
+### Frontend
+
+Inside another terminal session navigate into the `ui` folder
+
+```
+$ cd ui
+```
+Install required dependencies
+```
+$ npm install
+```
+Set the base url for the api
+```
+$ export VUE_APP_API_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8080/api/v1.0
+```
+Start the development server. It will rebuild and reload the site once you make a change to the source code.
+```
+$ npm run serve
+```
