Process Of the whole full_stack

The frontend is a simple web page that takes to country name: country_name and sends it to the backend using HTTP GET request. The backend is a simple NodeJS server that processes the HTTP GET request, reads the parameters country_name and search its statsitics in database(got from CSSE at Johns Hopkins University (https://github.com/CSSEGISandData)) and returns the result back to the frontend. By default frontend listens on port 8000, and backend listens on port 9000.
