My First Monolith

Objective - To create a full-stack monolithic application
Purpose - To gain familiarity with connecting a web service to a front end application
Description
- Run this application by running the main method in DemoApplication.
- Navigate to the server port specified in the application.properties file. By default, the port number is 8080
- If your application cannot run because something is occupying a port, execute this command from Git Bash with the respective port number specified:
  - kill -kill `lsof -t -i tcp:8080`
- Navigate to localhost/8080 from a browser (Chrome, or Firefox)
- Take note of the functionality for each button that is available on the webpage.
- Modify the functionality of the create button which fetches data from the DOM, and persists it in our database.
