Pokedex

Description

Test project created using React and accessing the pokeapi to search for Pokemon and get information about them

Requirements and features

• Search for Pokemon by name (with auto suggest)
• View basic Pokemon info and evolution and CTA to see evolution phase
• See history of searches and CTA search result to see Pokemon info

Implementation notes, key points, issues

• As long as application is "read only" I do not see any extra changes to be done
• The full list of Pokemon names is loaded twice on page load and I did not figure out how to address that (apparently this happens due to React.StrictMode)
• Some basic tests were added
• Styling is pretty basic as I tried to focus on usability, stability and performance
• I did not use Context or Redux but if the app will need to have more features Context would be the next thing to add

Setup

• Check out the main branch
• Make sure you have Node and npm installed
• and run npm install
