Build a React single page application from scratch

Apply your knowledge of components, props, state management, and effects

Persist data in a mock up backend

Introduction

Now that you've learned the fundamentals of React, it's time to practice and expand your skills by making a React project from scratch!

This assignment is open-ended when it comes to the actual content. You are free to create whatever you'd like, as long as it incorporates the requirements listed in these instructions.

Requirements

Frontend Requirements

You must make a single page application (only one index.html file) using create-react-app

Your app should use multiple components in a way that keeps your code well organized

Multiple client-side routes using react-router (Links to an external site.) are encouraged but not required

Backend Requirements

You should use json-server to create a RESTful API for your backend

You must have full CRUD on at least one resource

Stretch Goals

Once you have met the minimum requirements, feel free to explore! These are only the basic requirements — you're free to add on as much stuff as you'd like.

Some ideas for stretch goals:

Incorporate data from an external API. Use this list of APIs (Links to an external site.) if you need some inspiration!

Add some styling: you're encouraged to write your CSS from scratch, either by using styled-components (Links to an external site.) or writing CSS files and using id/className to style your elements. You can also incorporate a UI framework (like react-bootstrap (Links to an external site.), semantic-ui (Links to an external site.) material-ui (Links to an external site.)) if you prefer.
