Description
https://github.com/HVF/franchise/blob/b541e65ade270d86da27dcfd56a7d1a3ee004127/src/db/bridge.js#L13
This line needs to take into account whatever host was set when running `yarn start --host=MYHOST_IP`
Otherwise, it's nothing but a nice web app that can run locally only.
Nice work though!
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start at src/db/bridge.js line 13 and trace how the bridge receives connection settings when running `yarn start --host=MYHOST_IP`. Verify the bridge connects using the configured host rather than assuming localhost, then test the app with a non-localhost host value.
