-7. This project currently uses a frontend outside of Arches. To allow it to communicate with Django, add this to your project `settings.py`:
-
-```
-CORS_ALLOW_CREDENTIALS = True
-CORS_ORIGIN_ALLOW_ALL = False
-CORS_ORIGIN_WHITELIST = ["http://localhost:8080"]  # vue frontend
-CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS = ["http://localhost:8080"]  # vue frontend
-```
-
-NOTE: This rough draft currently assumes the Django backend is served at `https://127.0.0.1:8029/`.
-
-Run the frontend with:
-```
-npm run serve
-```
