Certainly, Clay! Running a web application locally in a conda environment can be beneficial, especially if you want to manage dependencies efficiently. Conda is especially popular among data scientists and machine learning practitioners because of its ability to create isolated environments, but it can be used for web development as well.

Here's a detailed guide to help you set up your "Farm2ShopApp" locally using a conda environment:

1. Install Miniconda or Anaconda:

If you haven’t already, download and install Miniconda (a minimal conda installer) or Anaconda (comes with more packages by default).

2. Create a new Conda environment:

Open your terminal or command prompt and create a new conda environment. We'll name it farm2shop_env:

conda create --name farm2shop_env

3. Activate the environment:

Every time you want to work on your project, ensure that you activate this environment.

conda activate farm2shop_env

4. Install required packages:

Depending on your app’s requirements, you might need to install specific packages. Given that this is a web application, I assume you might need Node.js. You can install it using conda:

conda install -c conda-forge nodejs

Similarly, if your application requires any database drivers or other libraries, you can search for them using:

conda search <package_name>

And install using:
