Sortis-React-2

Description

This is a refactor of a full-stack CRM search application using React.

This functions as an internal application for Sortis, a real estate investment firm, through which employees can view investor information or add interested parties to their mailing list.

Employees can search for investors by name and email. Investor information is retrieved from CrowdStreet, Sortis' CRM, using an API call to HubSpot which connects with the CrowdStreet database. The investor profiles that pertain to the search parameters are returned and displayed on the CRM search page.

The mailing list is populated using an API call to MailChimp. The user is prompted to provide the name and email of the new contact which is then pushed to MailChimp uing an API post request.

Employees must create an account with a username, email, and password which are encrypted. They then must log in to access the CRM search and new mailing contact functionality. In order to log in, the user must enter ther log in information which must be validated. Once logged in, their session persists until the browser is closed.
