Note that the path book-keeping is important for proper initialization, where the ServerBackEndUrl and ServerLocation is the location and Url of the CAD Server and ServerUrl is the Url of the React application encapulating CADViewer.
var ServerBackEndUrl = "http://localhost:3000/";
var ServerUrl = "http://localhost:8000/";
