Who works here?

Over the last six weeks, you have learned many concepts about front-end development. To demonstrate how far you have come, I want you to build an Employee Directory. For Explorer Mode, this will be a site with three pages; view all employees, add an employee, and view an employee. Adventure Mode adds the features to delete and updating an employee.

Objectives

Use react-router-dom to build a multiple page SPA
Create an API driven UI
Practice the skills you have learned in the past six weeks.
practice wireframing a new app

Requirements

Create a new delta stack project
This this api to manage a company's list of employees. Check out Additional Resources for how to use the API.
Create a relatively unique name for your company. You will use this as your company key when calling the endpoints of the API

Explorer Mode

[x] Create a react app with three pages and navigation between the pages.s
- [x] View All Employees page
- [x] This page should list all the employees for your company

TIPS:

This project is a typical weekend project, remember to plan, keep pace, and turn in however far you get on Sunday night.
A good milestone for today would be
- to have a wireframe for each completed
- react-router-dom set up, including a component for each page, and be able to click to different pages
- an understanding of the API
- some HTML and CSS completed.
The "profileImage" property is a URL to an image and should be treated as a string

How to use the API

API Documentations: https://sdg-staff-directory-app.herokuapp.com/index.html

The use the API you will need to name your company for which you are making an employee directory. Your company name will serve as a unique key for your company. My fake company is called honeydukes. That means that I want to make an API call to get all of my employees, I will do a fetch to the URL.

https://sdg-staff-directory-app.herokuapp.com/api/honeydukes/employees

That will return me a list of employees that are apart of the company.

If I want to get a different company's (Boogle) employees. I would do

https://sdg-staff-directory-app.herokuapp.com/api/Boogle/employees

For your project you will be using the same company for every request

To get an employee for that company, you will use the endpoint to get an employee. For me to get an employee of honeydukes, I would use the endpoint

https://sdg-staff-directory-app.herokuapp.com/api/honeydukes/employees/3

A GET request to the above URL will get the employee with the id of 3, and that works for honeydukes.

To create an employee for a company, you will have to use the POST endpoint. If I wanted to add an employee for honeydukes, I will send a POST request this endpoint

https://sdg-staff-directory-app.herokuapp.com/api/honeydukes/employees/

with my data in this JSON format:

  "firstName": "string",
  "lastName": "string",
  "birthday": "2019-06-06T16:48:57.256Z",
  "hiredDate": "2019-06-06T16:48:57.256Z",
  "isFullTime": true,
  "profileImage": "string",
  "jobTitle": "string",
  "jobDescription": "string",
  "phoneNumber": "string",
  "address": "string",
  "city": "string",
  "zip": "string",
  "state": "string",
  "salary": 0,
  "gender": "string",
  "email": "string",
  "emergencyContactPerson": "string",
  "emergencyContactPhone": "string",
  "emergencyContactAddress": "string",
  "ptoHours": 0,
}
