Full Stack Web Application: MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js (MERN).

Running on your machine:

1. npm install to install dependencies in /backend
2. nodemon server to run the backend
3. npm run start to run the frontend

The backend is a Blogging API that uses mongoose to connect to MongoDB Atlas and express and Node to create the backend.

MongoDB: No-SQL database.
Express: Framework for Node.
Node: Run-time environment for JS in the server.

Node Dependencies
-> Mongoose: Object Data Modelling library to simplify working with MongoDB.
-> Morgan: Logger to help debug.
-> dotenv: To protect MongoDB and other API secrets. -> Nodemon: Live reload server to speed up development. -> CORS: To facilitate communication between React and Node in development when they are served on different ports.

React: JavaScript library for building user interfaces.

Uses Fetch to interact with the Backend, creating, getting and deleting blogs.

React Dependencies
-> React-Router-DOM: For routing inside the Single Page Application.
