# Start Your Project in Development Mode

## Step 3 - Running the Development Server

To run your project in **development mode** with hot-reloading and fewer restrictions, use the following command:

```bash
npm run dev <app-name>
```

For example:

```bash
npm run dev startupstarterkits.com
```

This will start your app on a local development server, allowing you to see changes in real-time.
