Languages and Tools:

Installation

Setup your MongoDB Atlas cluster and database. In server/routes/employee.js edit MONGODB_DATABASE and MONGODB_COLLECTION to represent your MongoDB cluster data. Add a new .env file in server folder that fits your MongoDB credentials. For example take a look at server/example.env:

ATLAS_URI = mongodb+srv://<username>:<password>@sandbox.jadwj.mongodb.net/employees?retryWrites=true&w=majority
PORT = 5000
MONGODB_DATABASE = "jacandoAG_assessment"
MONGODB_COLLECTION = "employees"

Make sure that your IP address is whitelisted.

Download Node.js v16+ to run. Install the dependencies and devDependencies and start the server.

cd server
npm i
node server.js

You should get the following message:

Server is running on port: 5000  
Successfully connected to MongoDB.

cd client
npm i
npm start

Task

Please develop an application with frontend and backend that allows you to create employees and save them to the database.

Frontend

Preferably you use ReactJS but any other Javascript framework or vanilla Javascript is fine too
There should be input fields for
- email
- first name
- last name
There should also be a dropdown that lets the user select the gender of the employee
By clicking the submit button, the data is sent to your backend
If any of the information is missing, there should be an error message and the data should not be sent to the backend
Styling is not important but a good design is a plus

Backend

The backend should be written in NodeJS
Data received from the frontend should be stored in a database
- Preferably you use MongoDB but you can use any you like or even use an in memory store
