Building this project really helped me digest how the frontend and backend communicate. Before this project, I've only been focusing on each end seperately. So I decided to take on the challenge of implementing everything I've learned so far and combine it together.

The orginal reason was to learn GraphQL because I wanted to add another tool in my toolbox and I'm glad I took upon the challenge of also doing a full MERN app as well.

• Apollo GraphQL - I really loved how Apollo orginized and explained their documentation.
• GraphQL - I wished that the GraphQL team would show better examples in using their Javascript library.
