Jubilee is a custom vinyl creation website connecting to the Spotify API to select your favorite music, We wanted to create a site with a simple concept that could be worked on for years to come.
This project is a fantastic opportunity to show employers your collaborative skills and coding abilities, especially in the context of a scalable, user-focused MERN app. Remember that employers want to see what you can do, but they also want to see how you work with other developers. The more examples of deployed collaborative work you have in your portfolio, the more likely you are to get an interview and a job.
While building this project I learned to:
- Technologies used: React, Spotify API, mongoDB, Apollo, GraphQL
- Oliver handled database and server side, Jose created the wireframe, handled database, server side, styling, and page creation.
- Jacob worked on JavaScript, the Spotify API, and deployment, and Justin worked on styling and page creation
- Try using a component library, such as Semantic UI, Chakra UI, or Ant Design.

Add a comment about installing your project. For example that your project will be launched in browser or in the terminal. Now list out the installation requirements:
- Code block example
git clone
- Screenshot Example
- Give a detailed description of how to use your project.
- Remember you already described how to install your file so you don't have to reiterate any of that information.
- Its typical to have a screenshot or gif of the user experience while going through the user experience.
