This is a full stack project that uses the PERN (PostgreSQL, Express, React, Node) stack, along with GraphQL and Apollo. It is a powerful and flexible combination of technologies that allows you to build robust web applications that can handle complex data models and API integrations.
To get started with this project, follow these steps:
-
Clone the repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/imraza/PSQL-Express-React-Node-GraphQL-Apollo.git -
Install the project dependencies:
npm install -
Create a
.envfile at the root of the project directory and set the environment variables needed for the project. These are:DATABASEDATABASE_USERDATABASE_PASSWORDSECRET -
Start the development server:
npm run dev
This will start the server and the client-side React app in development mode.
The backend is built with Node.js and Express, and uses a PostgreSQL database to store data. The GraphQL API is implemented using Apollo Server, which provides a flexible and easy-to-use framework for creating GraphQL APIs. The frontend is built with React, and uses Apollo Client to interact with the GraphQL API.
This project serves as a template for building full stack web applications using the PERN stack, along with GraphQL and Apollo.
Feel free to use this project as a starting point for your own web applications, or to learn more about how to build full stack applications with the PERN stack and GraphQL/Apollo.
