Checklist

• Set up your backend boilerplate (e.g. database URI)
• Create the note schema
• Create the backend routes (e.g. GET, POST)

Choosing a techstack

There are so many technologies you can choose from for this project. If you are in doubt, we recommend the MERN (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js) stack.

Advice

If this is your first time using any of the technologies you have considered for this project, it might be wise to familiarize yourself with its documentation or a few videos that can get you warmed up with the way it works.

If you already know your stack, try to choose a bonus feature you are not familiar with.

We recommend choosing at most 1-2 new technologies or practices in order for you not to overwhelm yourself. ;)

E.g. required title and body fields, handling of error messages when performing backend requests, loading functionality, etc.

Implement a Responsive Design that supports multiple types of devices (e.g. phone, tablet, computer)
NOT where it looks terrific on a gigantic screen but is difficult to see or use on mobile. This template is intended to be great on any screen size :)

Set up your project directory, sub-directories, readme.md skeleton, .gitignore, etc.

If it doesn't have node_modules or <script> tags is a good indicator! If you double click index.html locally, without running node or anything, does the page open, look good, and work?
