This app is a simple frontend to the Pixabay API
Install the packages in the package.json. This Project uses node 14.17.0.
npm install
The API key is not included with the source code: to use an API key, add a
file at this location: src/API/PixabayAPI.key.ts, and add the following code:
export const config = {
key: "1234567890-abcdefghijklmnop"
}replacing the key with a valid key.
This app is built with Material-UI as the UI Framework and utilizes the Pixabay API as the backend. The App runs entirely in memory, so refreshing wipes out any saved data.
The app is SPA, so moving between views in the app does not remove the top-level state for saved pictures, or results from the last search. Saved items are stored as links to the ID: a user can click on their saved links by opening up the sidebar using the favorites button on the bottom App Bar.
Searches hit the Pixabay API, and restrictions on the API are enforced via client-side validation. Searches return the top 10 results.

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.

Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you eject, you can’t go back!
If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can eject at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.
Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except eject will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.
You don’t have to ever use eject. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
