### How to start

1. Clone this repository

2. Install package dependencies using `npm i`

3. Make sure to register application in Spotify developer's app https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard/applications

4. Setup local environment variable for node application using [dotenv](https://www.npmjs.com/package/dotenv)

5. Set your CLIENT_ID and CLIENT_SECRET

3. Add variables for :

```
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID
SPOTIFY_CLIENT_SECRET
