change localhost port number in a rails application

Question

I just started learning RoR as a backend technology for React. I came across a tutorial that uses 'react-rails' and it chooses the localhost port number to be 3000 for my development environment by default.

Is there any way to change this default port number?

In development environment(local machine) you can not use port number below 1024

To start rails server on different port: -

rails s -p 5000 #or you can set your own port (> 1024)

Or to start is on port 80 or less than 1024:-

rvmsudo rails server -p 80
