How to set the project up with previous project's API?

I’m just starting the second part of the E-commerce app project, after completing the first part (the API).
I’m at a loss already because the instructions feel really bare for setup.

Am I supposed to run create-react-app in the existing e-commerce folder for the API, or am I supposed to make a new project?

Would really appreciate some help.

Hi, are you still looking for help?

To help with your question, you can run create-react-app in the same root directory or your API project. Then the folders that contain the API I have called server, and the folder that contains the app, I have called client. So mine looks like this:

Root folder → client (create react app folder here for the second part)
→ server (contains the original project)

Here is my current ongoing file in github for my project in case it helps:

Thanks,
