If you want to run the Torrust Index for development with the backend (this repo) and the frontend you have to uncomment a line in the router:
https://github.com/torrust/torrust-index-backend/blob/develop/src/web/api/v1/routes.rs#L38
The CorsLayer::permissive() allows the frontend to make requests to the API on a different port.
/// Add all API routes to the router.
#[allow(clippy::needless_pass_by_value)]
pub fn router(app_data: Arc<AppData>) -> Router {
// code-review: should we use plural for the resource prefix: `users`, `categories`, `tags`?
// See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6845772/should-i-use-singular-or-plural-name-convention-for-rest-resources
let v1_api_routes = Router::new()
.route("/", get(about_page_handler).with_state(app_data.clone()))
.nest("/user", user::routes::router(app_data.clone()))
.nest("/about", about::routes::router(app_data.clone()))

Please create a new issue on the frontend after implementing this issue to change the documentation there.
