Thanks @ibacher. @ayushmishra the right command is →

```auto
yarn start --sources 'packages/esm-appointments-app'

```

Thanks, package name was incorrect. Now I am able to start the dev server using `yarn start --sources 'packages/esm-*-app/'`. But `yarn start --backend http://localhost/openmrs/` is throwing the same [error](https://pastebin.com/thUNB3Z7).

What happens when you add port number 8080 in the backend url?

```auto
yarn start --backend http://localhost:8080/openmrs
```

You need to specify both the project to run (`--sources`) and the backend (`--backend`)…

Should I go ahead and fix this in Readme cause this is confusing and others may also face the same issue? For fixing this, do I need to create a issue in jira?
