• need to use Node version 12 to be able to successfully run prisma init command hence using nvm to use specific version

• used graphql-yoga as graphql server

• graphql config is used to get schema properties which would be created in generated folder to be used in NodeJS

• we can use http://localhost:4466 to communicate with graphql operations

• use prisma deploy -e ../config/{config}.env forpreferred environment

• use environmental variables for confidential information

• use jest for unit testing

• use gql to generate graphql operations from client

• deployed on heroku and used postgres for persisting data
