Ensure `REACT_APP_API_URL` points to your backend URL (e.g., `http://localhost:5000`).
Ensure `VITE_REACT_APP_API_URL` is set to `/sdt` so that API requests are routed through the Vite dev server proxy to your backend (configured in `vite.config.js`).

#### Start the react frontend application
```bash
npm start
npm run dev
```

You can now navigate to the frontend via port 3000 in your web browser.
