Notes

Before starting this project, the team at The Last Mile Works had to gain an understanding of OAuth process and how the different social media sites used authorization codes and access tokens to authenticate requests. To simulate the oauth flow and test
during the development process, our team built mock authorization servers for Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest. This gave us the confidence that our app would work once we deployed the dashboard live on the internet.

Steve was responsible for building the back-end using Node and Express. He used Mongo to store the client app's authentication information, as well as the social media count data over time.

Chris built the front-end using React and the D3 library for line chart data visualizations.
He also made great use of React's component, router, and webpack capabilities.
