Comic Books App

A web application that features a comic book store locator and weekly new comic listings. The application uses Yelp Fusion API, Google Maps JavaScript API, and Comic Vine API as the data model. Bootstrap 4, Knockout, and jQuery are dependencies, while Webpack and Babel are devDependencies. Note: NPM local servers like http-server and webpack-dev-server will not handle the PHP Yelp Fusion verification without changing the settings in their respective configs. WAMP, MAMP, and XAMPP will be fine.
