📚 General info

Backend

• Husky, ESLint, and Prettier are configured to handle safe commits
• MySQL needs to be installed and running - I started it from my Mac using MySQL 8.0.27 option 'Homebrew shell (brew install mysql)'
• Redis needs to be installed for blacklisting access tokens
• Postman used to test the API endpoints on backend

Frontend

• Frontend structure follows a loose structure of MVVM (View, View Model, Model) structure
• Separation of business logic on the views allow for isolated testing
• Views contain the UI (the screen)
• Models contain the business logic of similar to hooks, but are strictly coupled with specific screens
