Look inside

Welcome to your second week at SongRiver, a music-streaming startup whose success is skyrocketing. You’ve been working on a directory app to help keep track of the company’s growing number of employees, and your task for this week is to add search functionality to employee pages in the directory. Using Chakra UI, you'll create the user interface for the search input box. Then you'll fetch the results from the server via React Query and display the data. You’ll end the project on a high note by using React Router tools to create links that enable navigation between individual employee pages and the search interface.

Some sections may contain information that is now outdated due to the rapid advancements in the technology field, notably the initial libraries, Docker setup, and some documentation links. Regardless, this liveProject remains an invaluable resource for intermediate users.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
