This is an exercise that utilizes the full stack. Routes are defined and executed using Node & Express on the server side. The user interface is executed on the client side with React and Redux.

The app is a way for developers to connect with each other and share information about themselves.

Since this app is full stack the approach is as follows:

• The app is two-tiered in its approach, server-side/client-side.

• The app was created with the server as the root.

• The package.json and package-lock.json files, and the node_modules folder and content in the root, pertain primarily to server-side functionality.

• The client is a folder within the root

  • The client was created using create-react-app
  • the files .git, .gitignore and README.md were deleted from the client folder as being superceded by those same files in the root folder

• The package.json and package-lock.json files, and the node_modules folder and content in the client folder, pertain client-side functionality.
