Technology

1. I have used react.js to handle client side UI
2. Used axios. It is a promised-based HTTP client for JavaScript.
3. For client side route management I have used react-router-dom
4. react-toastify is used to show success/error message
5. react-bootstrap is used to show modal

Decision

1. Why react.js?: It provides state-of-the-art functionality and is an excellent choice for developers looking for an easy-to-use and highly productive JavaScript framework. Using React, you can build complex UI interactions that communicate with the server in record time with JavaScript-driven pages. It also provide virtual DOM which provides more performant.
2. I have used pagination instead of loading all data at a time. Initially, it loads 10 items
3. Authentication, authorization, user verify, recover password are added to this app
