What inspired you?)<br> <a href="//www.jumia.com">Jumia</a> is one of the biggest E-commerce websites in Africa. Has millions of users and sellers uploading thousands of products daily. We decided to choose E-commerce so we can test how fast and easy it could be searching through huge database with MongoDB Full text search.</p> <h3> How I built it </h3> <p>(How did you utilize MongoDB Atlas? Did you learn something new along the way? Pick up a new skill?)<br> We built the app with React and Nodejs express, and then we created a database on Mongo-atlas platform. <br> After completing the coding part on the back end of the app, we then indexed the *<em>"products collection" *</em> we then used the "index name" to configure the search function on the backend.</p> <h3> Additional Resources/Info </h3> <ul> <li><strong><a href="https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/atlas-search/tutorial/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Getting started with Atlas Search</a></strong></li> </ul> <h3> Collaborators </h3> <ul> <li><p><strong><a href="https://github.com/farukade" rel="noopener noreferrer">Faruk Suleiman</a></strong></p></li> <li><p><strong><a href="https://github.com/tylerjusfly" rel="noopener noreferrer">Tyler Momoh</a></strong></p></li> <li><p><strong><a href="https://github.com/malikmukhtar" rel="noopener noreferrer">Malik Mukhtar</a></strong></p></li> </ul> design softwaredevelopment productivity
