Resolving Demo UI Issues in Typesense Opensource Project

TLDR Nicola was unable to get the demo UI for Typesense to work. Jason pointed out the possible issue and gave guidance. Nicola resolved the problem by rectifying the server's host configuration.

Hi community typesense 😄, for a few days now I've been testing this amazing opensource project. I was able to install and setup without any problems. I am mainly a node.js programmer and from here I can interact with typesense without problems (writing data, updating them, deleting them, doing searches, etc.). I am unable to get the demo UI (https://typesense.org/docs/0.21.0/guide/search-ui-components.html#walk-through) to work in order to test the search types more thoroughly . The errors that come back to me in the console are the following. I'm definitely doing something stupid wrong, can anyone help me?

Nicola It looks like Typesense server might not be running?

If you're running this demo app: https://github.com/typesense/typesense-instantsearch-demo

You want to run: npm run typesenseServer

hi Jason thank you so much for the tip! I am running the version without docker but I have identified the problem, it was the host inside the configuration where I had placed localhost instead of the external ip of the server, so the xhr calls did not work. Now everything works! Thank you very much for your availability
