2. Web Service
A web service is created to manage data on the mongo database.
This webservice can be consumed by HTTP methods. It is developed in
NodeJs with packages like express and mongoose. Since it is a restful web
service, it can be consumed by any client for example Mobile app, Web
Application or desktop software.
3. Frontend
Frontent of the consists of webpages which allows us to consume the
books webservice using the HTTP methods with help of AJAX. The user
interface is designed using Bootstrap framwork. And Ajax calls are done
using JavaScript fetch api.
