+## Getting Started
+
+### Frontend
+For our frontend we are using React + Vite + TypeScript!
+
+- **React** -> JavaScript Framework for creating reactive user interfaces.
+- **Vite** -> Development environment / build tool. Gives us access to features like hot reload, bundling, and plugins.
+- **TypeScript** -> A superset of JavaScript allowing for static types.
+
+Here's how to set up + run the frontend environment:
+1. Download and install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download) v18+
+Check your node version:
+```sh
+node -v
+```
+2. Clone the repo using Git
+3. Install dependencies
+```sh
+cd frontend
+npm install
+```
+4. Start the development server
+```sh
+npm run dev
+```
+5. Visit http://localhost:5173
