• Run npm i inside of the server folder to install its dependencies. Run node server.js to start the server. - DONE √
• Run create-react-app friends in a SEPARATE folder to create your starter application. - I DID THIS IN THE TOP LEVEL AND NOW HAVE THE REACT APP FOLDER ~/LS-AJAX/friends/ WAS THIS NOT YOUR INTENTION? - DONE√
• npm i --save redux react-redux redux-promise axios This command will install the needed dependencies. FROM WITHIN ~/LS-AJAX/friends/ I RAN THIS COMMAND - DONE√
• You will create a list of your friends using React and Redux. - OKAY √
• The general flow of steps will be to: - I'M STILL NOT 100% ON THE IMPLEMENTATION STEPS
  1. create your store, - DONE √
  2. create your reducers, - DONE √
  3. create your containers, - DONE √
  4. and then create the action creators. - DONE √
• You will need to use ReduxPromise as a middleware inside of src/index.js. - DONE √
• Create two actions. - DONE √
  1. One action will retrieve the friends list from the server. - HTTP Mini Sprint, axios.get() - DONE √
  2. The second action will add a new friend to the friends list on the server. axios.post() - DONE √

• Your application should have an input field, a submit button, and a list of items that represents your friends list. Make each friend a separate component. - DONE √
• Your application's state tree should have a single property called friends. It should take the same form as the object shown below. - DONE √

{
 friends: [],
}

• Each friend item that is in the friends array should have the following format:

{
  name: 'Stephanie',
  age: 24,
  email: '[email protected]',
}

• When you type a new friend's name into the input field and press the submit button you should call an action creator that adds a new friend item to the friends array on the application state tree. - DONE √
• When the user presses submit you will invoke the appropriate action creator which will then have its new action fed through all of the reducers. - DONE √
• You will display the friends list by creating a container that receives the application's friends array as a prop. That container then uses map to display the array. - DONE √

• You will only need one reducer. This reducer will control the friends array property on the state tree. - DONE √
• You will have several action creators. One for adding a new friend and another for retrieving the friends list from the server. - DONE √
• Containers require connect and a mapStateToProps(state) function to read from the state tree. - DONE √
• Actions require you to create a mapDispatchToProps(dispatch) function that you'll also pass to the connect function. - WE DIDN'T USE DISPATCH, WHY???????????

• Style the friends list and the input field and make everything look nice. - DONE √
• Expand the number of properties that you put on each friend object. Feel free to remove the dummy data on the server or modify it in any way. - JESH AND I HAVE A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF HOW TO IMPLEMENT THIS √
