How to Run

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

Available Scripts

In the project directory, you can run:

yarn start

Runs the app in the development mode.
Open http://localhost:3000 to view it in the browser.

The page will reload if you make edits.
You will also see any lint errors in the console.

yarn test

Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.
See the section about running tests for more information.

yarn build

Builds the app for production to the build folder.
It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.

The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.
Your app is ready to be deployed!

See the section about deployment for more information.

TODOS

Note

This is a HUGE initial project to do. We're planning 2-3 weeks for each of you to work on this, although it's totally possible to finish this earlier. We expect and want you to ask us lots of questions! The best developers ask many questions, and understand that there's really no such thing as a dumb question.

Your task will be to implement all the pages as seen on this Figma.

Setting up your Database

below is copied from the backend project

A diagram detailing the database structure can be found here.

  • GET /items - returns a list of all the items
    • Response
      • an array of objects of the following shape
        • uuid: the uuid of the item
        • name: the name of the item
        • price: the price of the item
        • createdAt: the time the item was created
  • POST /item - creates an item
    • Input (Body, in json or form data)
      • name: the name of the item
      • description: the description of the item
      • price: the price of the item
    • Response:
      • uuid: the newly created item's uuid
  • DELETE /items/:uuid - deletes an item
    • Response:
      • non 200 status code if there was a failure, 200 status code if it suceeded
  • POST /order - creates an order
    • Input (Body, in json or form data)
      • itemId: the uuid corresponding with the item
    • Note: to simplify things, we're going to assume that a call to this request assumes the user is going to buy one item at a time
    • Response:
      • uuid: the newly created order's uuid
  • GET /orders/:uuid: returns the information associated with an item. To simplify things, we're not going to ask you to add any auth (though adding auth would be cool!)
    • Input (Body, in json or form data)
      • user: the uuid of the current user
    • Response
      • uuid: the order's uuid
      • item: the item that was purchased with this order
      • price: the price of the item that was purchased
      • createdAt the time the order was placed
  • POST /user: creates a new user
    • Input (Body, in json or form data)
      • name: the user's name
    • Response:
      • uuid: the uuid of the user (used as an id for other methods)
  • GET /users: gets all users (we're not worried about security for the scope of this project)
    • Response:
      • an array of objects of the following shape
        • uuid: a user's uuid
        • name: a user's name
  • GET /user/:uuid: gets information about a user
    • Response:
      • uuid: the user's uuid
      • name: a user's name
      • orders: an array of all the orders associated with a user, each object in this array should have the following shape
        • uuid: the order's uuid
        • item: the item that was purchased with this order
        • price: the price of the item that was purchased
        • createdAt the time the order was placed
