GitHub onboarding and backend/frontend environment setup for ASUCD 프로젝트

Sohan Dillikar and John Carraher coordinated Sohan's onboarding for a project with the ASUCD IRL organization on January 6, 2026. John added Sohan (sohanyt.main@gmail.com) to the GitHub organization and identified two primary repositories for the project: SW-Transportation-Frontend and SW-Transportation-Backend. John's initial instructions for Sohan were to get the project running locally, referencing the README files and using a GitHub project board to track tasks and document findings. On January 12, 2026, John followed up with specific environment configuration details to facilitate the local setup. For the backend, he provided Flask and PostgreSQL database parameters (including credentials like 'staff'/'asucd_irl' and a port of 5433). For the frontend, he specified using a .env.local file with the backend API URL set to localhost. Additionally, John shared the contact information for Rani Saro, who is affiliated with Aggieworks / IRL, presumably as an additional resource or team member for the project. The conversation concluded with John encouraging Sohan to reach out for further assistance as he navigates the setup process.
