Bb Enlistment App

This is a React application that allows you to enlist bots into your bot army, release bots from the army, and discharge bots from the army permanently by deleting them from the backend. The app fetches data about available bots from an external API and provides an interface to manage your bot army.

Getting Started

To run the application locally, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/joycewachira/bb cd bb

2. Install dependencies: npm install

3. Start the development server: npm start

The app will open in your default web browser at http://localhost:3000.

Features

The app provides the following features:

1. Viewing Bot Collection: You can view profiles of all available bots in the "Bot Collection" section. Each bot card displays its avatar, name, class, health, damage, armor, and catchphrase.

2. Enlisting Bots: You can enlist individual bots into your bot army by clicking the "Enlist" button on their respective cards. Once enlisted, the bot will appear in the "Your Bot Army" section.

3. Releasing Bots: If you no longer want a bot in your bot army, you can release it by clicking the "Release" button on its card. The bot will be removed from your bot army but will still be available in the "Bot Collection."

4. Discharging Bots: You can permanently discharge a bot from your bot army by clicking the "Discharge" button on its card. This will delete the bot from the backend API and remove it from your bot army.
