This is my solution to the SellAnyCar Front-end challenge.

Demo

The Front-end SPA consumes the Back-end Restful API using JSON data.

The project was created using create-react-app. This project conforms to the Air BnB style guide's naming and coding-style conventions, with special tweaks. For more info, please see my development tool-belt blog post.

Other:

I use redux for state management. My personal opinion: Always use redux for state management. Check out my blog article on this
I use redux-saga for redux middleware, and it works well. Please see my blog post on redux-saga for more info.
Prettier - Automatically formats code after every commit.

Not considered for this challenge, however worth mentioning:

Tests have not created. However, if this where a production app tests would be written for reducers, sagas, containers & views.
Typescript has no been used. However, it is recommended for production applications.

The node API was generated using the express generator. The node project makes use of the MVC and modular pattern.

Other:

I use expressjs web framework to create a simple Restful API.
I used sequelize as ORM for PostgreSQL DB. Using sequelize-cli to generate modules, which acts as a repository pattern.

To run the back-end locally, you'll need PostgreSQL DB to be installed.
