Create a test app on your branch #10

This issue will be completed when each team member has a working app on their branch, and is therefore assigned to everyone. It would be great to have this completed by the middle of next week, before we meet on Friday April 13th

I'd reccomend using this guide: https://medium.com/@tkssharma/quickly-build-react-app-using-create-react-app-e55d7eb5572d

Feel free to use another demo though @Rallph that integrates Express. That's what I'm gonna try.

If you're on windows remember to use "GitBash" to run commands. You'll need to install Node from here: https://nodejs.org/en/ which comes with NPM. (This lets you download packages to run. Create-react-app will come from NPM)

From there, I'd also recommend using VSCode as your file editor, it has some great extensions I can recommend for React, and almost anything else you can think of. https://code.visualstudio.com/

Before working, remember to cd into the folder where your clone of the repository is, and checkout your own branch

information on those basic git functionalities is in the guide I originally posted in discord announcements for the group, which you should have already read by now, as that was the deadlined assignment for our second meeting. There's multiple links in #mentorship-general, as well as a presentation, and an entire channel dedicated to helping with Git, so don't be afraid to ask for help.

Best of luck <3
