Problem

Each photo in our database looks like this:

Note how there is an albumId, but no userId.

Now if you look at each album, those have userId's:

So, if we have a given photo and we want to find out what user it belongs to, we have to first look up the album it belongs to, then check the userId we find there.

It would be easier if we could have a userId on each photo to avoid this double-lookup, so:

Requirements

Write code that adds a userId field to every photo, containing the user ID of the owner of that photo.

Be sure to comment your code if needed.

JSON Placeholder API has a bunch of fake data it can return for us.
Put everything in every category into its own collection in firestore. We just want to store all the data they offer so we have our own copy of it to mess with in a database (firestore). e.g. 'posts' collection in firestore should have 100 post documents in it, 'comments' collection in firestore should have the 500 comments, etc...

How to use the API:

install npm packages joe forgot to do:

1. firebase
2. express
3. cors
4. body-parser

I'm going to scaffold out a basic express app with a firebase project and all that set up already to save time.

The idea is that we have an app with a bunch of unfinished features that we will build out as an Agile project, similar to how you'd do it at a lot of tech companies.

Requirements:

• setup firebase project and initialize sdk's in code
• scaffold jsonplaceholder data fetching and put some of it in firestore
• come up with some features that require relating some of the jsonplaceholder data manually
