Reflection

This was a three-week project built during my 5610 Web Development class. The goals included applying technologies learned up to that point and becoming familiar with the documentation for new features.

Originally, I wanted to build an application that allowed users to browse product data from both a MongoDB database and an external API. I started with the create-react-app boilerplate, then added react-router-4.0 and redux.

The primary technologies used in this project are React, React Router 4.0, and Redux.
