Server-Side Details

The back-end server consist of a Node api and postgres database. So when a helper function is called on the front-end it makes a fetch call to my api. Then the api processes the task because upon whatever the fetch route was. The api then uses Knex to make sql queries to the postgres database. The api then sends a response back to the front-end.
