NPR Music's The Record Webscraper

About

Full Stack Webscraper with an Express server that uses Cheerio &Request to grab articles from NPR's the Record website section, and then stores them in a Mongodb database. The app gives you the option of saving and deleting articles from the database, and also gives you the option of writing notes related to the articles that you save. Data is dispersed using Handlebars and it was designed with the bootstrap 4 framework. It is deployed on Heroku and/or you can install it on your local machine.
