Koa Local

A news and weather app created to demonstrate the use of the following things.

1. Koa
   • Used as the backend framework. Koa renders the initial page load using a Pug template. After the initial page load an Ajax call is made using the Fetch api and Koa responds with a JSONApi response. The ajax request is used to load the data for the page.
2. React
   • Used on the front end with Reach Router to create the UI.
3. Redux
   • Used in conjunction with React as a state container. Responds to state changes and updates the React state.
4. Service Worker Api
   • Used to cache files and create a Progressive Web App that can be loaded as an app on the home screen of a device.
5. Serverless Framework is used to deploy the app to aws lambda.
