Running on localhost from Workspace

Currently working through the Django Rest Framework course, and now need to run the command to run the API on localhost:8000.

I have tried several solutions such as allowing '0.0.0.0' in the ALLOWED_HOSTS variable in settings.py and I even received a message that the serve is running on my localhost (I've tried 3000 and 8000)....but, I keep getting a 'ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED' message.

Any help? Otherwise, is it possible for me to simply clone the git repo and follow along on my local set-up?

Thanks.
