Pro

First time setup

Just clone the repository and run

npm i

in both folders

Running the app locally for development

To start the server for development purposes you can use

npm run dev

in their respective folder

Tasks You need to complete

All tasks you need to complete are marked with comments starting with TODO: You can use a vs code extension such as "Todo Tree" to highlight and make them easy to find

For the "update new todos order on server" task you may need to write extra code on the server that has not been marked as "TODO:", You are required to implement an endpoint for updating the todo items order including its dal,controller and route.

Tests

After completing the tasks make sure all jest tests on the server pass.

You can run tests by using

npm run test

in the server folder
