A functional frontend should integrate React components with the backend API and allow users to navigate seamlessly within the application based on authorization. To demonstrate how to implement a functional frontend view for this MERN skeleton, we will start by detailing how to render the home page component at the root route, then cover the backend API and user auth integration, before highlighting the unique aspects of implementing the remaining view components.
The process of implementing and rendering a working Home
component at the root route will also expose the basic structure of the frontend code in the skeleton. We will start with the top-level entry component that houses the whole React app and renders the main router component that links all the React components in the application.
