Pidwin Assessment

The Pidwin Fullstack Assessment.

Project setup

Enter each folder:

• backend
• frontend

and run the following command

npm install

---

Backend

Now in the backend folder.

For this Demo, I setup a local Docker mongoDB container. The .env file is already configured for the local instance that will be launched in Docker Composer.

Note that the mongourl could simply point to another host and the rest of the configuration ignored.

Also note that in a Production environment, I would not have the senstive values hardcoded in the.env, but instead pull those from Secrets Management as needed.

Start the Local Database

docker compose up

Run the start command

npm run start

The backend is now up and running.

When completed with testing Demo run

docker compose down

---

Frontend

The frontend is your standard create-react-app, the default ReadME is provided under frontend/readme.md for reference.

Application will be running from localhost:3000
