How to run an existing REACT project

Question

Beginner here, please help.

1. If I have the files of a react project which was built on codesandbox or by another dev, how do I run the app and make changes in VSCode on my own machine.
2. How do I run an existing personal create-react-app project on my machine, so as to continue buliding?

Answer 1

Open a terminal on vscode, then make sure you already node installed. Type npm install after that npm run start or whatever command to run, you can see on package.json.
