Took out console logs and modified read me (#587)

* got rid of console logs, jsut commented them out for now the next team can uncomment them where needed

* modified readme and added a deployment information and tips document to keep readme from getting any longer

 ## Running the Project
 
 First things, first, **clone this repository**.
 
 There are multiple conifigurations for running the application in different environments to make the application
 machine and OS agnostic. The possible configurations are:
 - [Production](#Running-In-a-Production-Environment): For when you want the app out for full use
-- [Local Development](#Running-In-a-Local-Development-Environment): The production app but running only on a localhost network for testing
+- [Local](#Running-In-a-Local-Environment): The production app but running only on a localhost network for testing
 - [Run Each Backend Microservice Individually](#Running-Backend-Microservices-Individually): Run each backend service independently of eachother for testing on specific microservices
 - [Run The Frontend Microservice Individually](#Running-Frontend-Microservice-Individually): Test the frontend service with a subset of the backend microservices
