2.0 Migration Strat Plan

Currently, RecipeBook is a react front end, making calls to a spring backend.

The new plan is to use a node/express backend with graphql (and initially rest) calls.

To do things piecemeal, we'll need to do something like

Phase 1: Spin up new express backend with rest api

Phase 2: Migrate the react fetch calls to use the new express backend 1 endpoint at a time

Phase 3: Create graphql endpoints in express backend.

Phase 4: Migrate the fetch calls in frontend to use graphql

Phase 5: Remove spring backend after all verification is complete We could remove the express rest api, but i don't see any harm in keeping it in place as it is.

Responsibilities during this

Steven:

• New node/express backend with graphql layer
• Use graphql client when graphql backend is ready

Eric:

• Change frontend to point to new rest api when ready
• Migrate DB to supabase
• Work on using supabase for auth
