find-rep-api

A Simple api to get results from http://whoismyrepresentative.com/api

Goal

• Build a React application that utilizes both endpoints found below.
• Design and styling aren't important here, this should focus on react.
• Your app should display all representatives and senators in an infinite scroll container.
• As you scroll near the bottom of the container/page it should fetch more results from the api.
• Output the api data in a simple UI.
• Let the user know once they've reached the end of the results.
• Email your completed project link to your company contact.

Installation

• Install node (v12+)
• Run npm install or yarn
• Run npm run start or yarn start

Available endpoints:

/representatives/:state

:state must be a valid state abbreviation (UT, WY, MO...etc)
