There is a frontend web app that is used to consume the API!</p> <h2> Demo Link </h2> <p><a href="https://www.getontrack.ie">https://www.getontrack.ie</a></p> <h2> Link to Code <div class="ltag-github-readme-tag"> <div class="readme-overview"> <h2> <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/practicaldev/image/fetch/s--vWogaON8--/c_limit%2Cf_auto%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto%2Cw_880/https://practicaldev-herokuapp-com.freetls.fastly.net/assets/github-logo-28d89282e0daa1e2496205e2f218a44c755b0dd6536bbadf5ed5a44a7ca54716.svg" alt="GitHub logo"> <a href="https://github.com/realshaunoneill"> realshaunoneill </a> / <a href="https://github.com/realshaunoneill/GetOnTrack-API"> GetOnTrack-API </a> </h2> <h3> Backend API for the TransportIreland-Plus app </h3> </div> <div class="ltag-github-body"> <div id="readme" class="md"> <h1> TI-Plus-API</h1> <p>Backend API for the TransportIreland-Plus app</p> </div> </div> <div class="gh-btn-container"><a class="gh-btn" href="https://github.com/realshaunoneill/GetOnTrack-API">View on GitHub</a></div> </div> </h2> <h2> How I built it </h2> <p>The API runs off a NodeJS backend, using Express to define the routes. The official APIs are interfaced with the exposed API endpoints so that they can be uniform and easy to understand.<br> The REST endpoints are documented and available at <a href="https://docs.getontrack.ie">https://docs.getontrack.ie</a> while the GraphQL elements are documented. Available at <a href="https://api.getontrack.ie/graphql">https://api.getontrack.ie/graphql</a><br> The front end is build using NextJS. It uses bulma as a base theme along with custom styled components. </p> <p>Both the API and web app are deployed to Vercel. The API is deployed as various serverless endpoints. While the app is deployed as a static website.</p> <h2> Additional Thoughts / Feelings / Stories </h2> <p>Absolutly over the moon to be finished! Got a front end job already sorted! Roll on graduation once everything is back to normal!</p> devgrad2020 octograd2020 showdev githubsdp
