Heroku Hosted

Learning Mission:

Working with cloud-based data is an important conceptual piece of a bigger project that I'm working on for Maker's Faire, called IoT Empoering Me - an IoT + App product to empower individuals within the community.

• Version one with be front-end UI emphasis.
• Version two will be for building a Native app.
• Version three will tie in data persistence, possible routing using express and node.

Practicuum:

1. use create-react-app for template app structure
2. Add CRA to Heroku
3. Heroku live
4. Use Postman to get a sample API Get Call and figure out which datapoints to access in fetch calls
5. add Bootstrap and UI rendering of data as well and input fields

Action Shot!
