A CLI application built with MySQL and Node that allows users to view an employee database and update data fields. Also includes ability to delete data and get budget for departments.
Relies on OOP to modularize database queries and utilizes different forms of asynchronicity for the sake of practice and smooth UE.
Room for improvement: can refactor code to make class for index functions, can further refactor by removing recursion of interval function, can also combine some functions
Clone the application, cd into folder, and 'npm i' inquirer, console.table, and mysql2 packages. Initialize the app using command 'node index.js'.
Initialize the app and view list options using arrow keys and pressing enter. Exit the app by selecting and pressing exit. Make sure to avoid inputting null data.
