Welcome to the Turing Tip Jar - where students and alum can choose to simply peruse tips, or can leave tips to help others wade the trecherous Turing waters!
The goal of this Mod3 group project was to stretch boundaries and branch out on our own to teach ourselves new tech. We chose to dive into the backend technologies. We built our own server using express and built a database using PostgreSQL. We deployed our database to Heroku and built our frontend using React.
Our application is deployed to Heroku. You may view the live application here
Our Express server is located in another repo here
To view our application on your local device:
- Clone down this repository
- Run
npm iin your terminal - Run
npm startin your terminal - To view Cypress tests open a separate tab in your terminal and run
npm run cypress - You do not need to clone our API as it is already deployed to Heroku
To solidify and demonstrate the understanding of:
- The ability to independently learn a new technology
- Building a server through Express
- Establishing and seeding a database using PostgreSQL
- Deploying a database
- Building a frontend using React to display data
