## Architecture and Design Notes

I used Next.JS in this application for Static Rendering and general ease of use - their API Routes feature is amazing and simple.

The database being used is Mongo. I decided not to use an ORM because that was overkill, and I'm kinda on the fence re ORM's.

A Docker container is created for both the Next.JS app and the Mongo database, and networking is set up so that the app can query the DB.
