This was developed on Linux (Windows 10 WSL 2 Ubuntu).

1. have node.js installed
2. enter the root directory of the project
3. npm i (this installs all the dependencies needed for the project)
4. ???
5. from the root directory of the project, npm run start (should open the app in a browser tab)

these descriptions may not be 100% accurate since i might've forgot some things

• src = the code
• webpack.config.js
  • configuration file for webpack (responsible for preparing files to be loaded into a browser)
  • if the names of template files like index.html are changed, this file needs to be updated accordingly
• package.json
  • node.js configuration file
  • determines the name of the project
  • package-lock.json is auto-generated based on this file
• .babelrc = config file for Babel (javascript compiler)
• src/index.html = template HTML file that React code will be inserted into
• src/index.js = React code to be inserted

• this is barely tested ("Works on My Machine"-type beat)
• comments related to the template (i.e. irrelevant to the actual project) are pre-fixed with [TEMP] so they can be CTRL-F'd
