Hello @DhanushNehru Backend is being hosted on render it is running on a free version that is after a period of inactivity the server goes down and takes time to restart once a request is made . So either if you have other plans to host you can host on other platform too i have added server folder within the root directory of your project you could look into it.

To keep your backend alive every time, you can create a job in cron-job.org which will send a request to the backend every 1 min, solving the server going down issue.

On render you just need to choose web service and choose the repo where your backend is located in my case i had created a seperate repo and on render selected that repo

Yo


in the build command just write npm install
and in the start command write node index.js and choose the free plan and click on deploy
However if you are locally setting up the project you don;t need to configure the render
