Notes

  • Run tests locally executing npm test.
  • The project comes with migrate, rollback and seed scripts in case you need to reset the database.
  • You are welcome to create additional files but do not move or rename existing files or folders.
  • Do not alter your package.json file except to install extra libraries or add extra scripts. Do not update existing libraries.
  • In your solution, it is essential that you follow best practices and produce clean and professional results.
  • Schedule time to review, refine, and assess your work.
  • Perform basic professional polishing including spell-checking and grammar-checking on your work.

Task 3: Stretch Goals

  • Build a React application that implements components to register, login and view a list of users. Gotta keep sharpening your React skills.
