Note that the value between them must be the same.REACT_APP_BACKEND_URLis just your server URL, localhost:5000 is the default if you run in local machine.Still, it doesn't load up.

Firstly, is your npm is installed successfully with its PATH environment variable? I think this is because your npm is not registered in your PATH environment variable. Please check it by opening path > Environment Variables > PATH > Edit.
@qusaionali comment this line out "res.setHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", process.env.CLIENT_URL)" in index.js inside the server folder, the submit button started working for me after that
