Before You decide to accept this Pull Req, You need to move React up to version 16.8.6 or higher. This will allow me to make use of hooks, which, in turn, will make things simpler for both of us when working on the client-side.
It might also require You to do some work to make the new client work with the server. Not much, though, I made sure not to change Your decisions; the file structure is all that is changed.
I have also added You as a collab to the private repo I've set up that enables You to run the client without the server. It will allow You to make sure that things are to Your liking on the front-end of the boilerplate.
...for more commonplace file structure.
