I am learning Express with this book and now I arrived at the React chapter. The author showed a cool little application which is very interesting, but it is completely independent of the Express application I built by following all the other 14 chapters.
I am having trouble understanding (from an architecture perspective) how can Express and React work together...
I thought of creating APIs with Express and having React request the necessary data from them. Is it a common approach? Are there other ideas?
Thank you!
