This is a refactor of a working Google Book Search API application to use GraphQL. The original application was built using React and a RESTful API on top of a Node.js/Express backend using a MongoDB database. Our task was to make the application more efficient with GraphQL and master GraphQL in the process. I wish I could say that I did master GraphQL, but at least, I have a better understanding of it in preparation for the next GraphQL project.
There will be no user installation for this application. The completed refactor will be deployed to Heroku.
Refactor running on Heroku at: https://gentle-fjord-95460.herokuapp.com/. There is no functional change to this application. Only the front-end connection to the backend was changed. The application just supports a signup and login as well as the ability to search for books and save books for later review. Books are saved by user id.

This challenge was a refactor of exisiting code for the Module 21 Challenge of the University of Richmond Coding Boot Camp starting February 2022. Only the REST APIs were swapped out for GraphQL.
