Overview of libraries

• Restful backend api implemented using node.js express framework. This backend is a proxy layer between UI and QPX Express Api. Having an api is useful to hide sensitive information from client side. (ex : Google Api Keys)

• lowdb - super simple data access, a single json file for data storage

• create-react-app - a starter boilerplate for client side React application

• redux + redux-thunk - state management between components

• normalizr - normalized api result

• reselect - memoized selector
