Frequently Asked Questions
This repository contains initial work on a FAQ app. To complete the app, you'll need to implement the functions which allow a visitor to search for a question and ask a new question.
This repository is part of CodeYourFuture's group projects.
What you need to do
- Create a MongoDB database and a collection to store questions and answers.
- Move the existing data into the database. Add several more entries on whatever topics you would like.
- Allow a user to search for a word or phrase and display only entries which contain that word or phrase. You'll want to use MongoDB's $regex feature to search your database.
- Add a form which allows a user to ask a new question.
- Only questions with answers should be shown on the front page or included in search results.
- Allow a user to indicate whether an answer was helpful using the Yes and No buttons. Their response should be reflected in the numbers included below each answer: "25/?? people found this helpful."
- Create a route on your server to display a list of unanswered questions. Allow users to submit an answer to an unanswered question.
Stretch goals
- Try to implement the search feature using only ajax requests, so that the results appear without reloading the page.
- Try to sort the entries with the most helpful entries listed first. Try to do the same for the search results.
- Try to prevent entries that are very unhelpful from being shown in the main page.
