Create a backend API to serve our frontend

dastrong commented 5 years ago

I've been researching this for the past week and settled on a serverless Express API with mongoDB as the database.

There are so many options out there, I was having some information overload. So I chose these since they're free, have low costs and I'm slightly familiar with them. We have just over two weeks left and that played a part in me starting tonight on it.

Btw I'm going to utilize Lambdas and AWS API Gateway, because I haven't before I wanted to learn about them.

Finished the handling of users (logging in and signups) and proper error messaging.

Next up is viewing, creating, updating and deleting posts.
