Understanding OAuth with the Spotify API - #12 React JS prototyping
We build a small backend server to handle authenticating with the Spotify API via OAuth. After this episode we can finally get the user's own data into the prototype!
This actually works very similar for any OAuth credential server you might need.

In this series we'll go from start to finish in building a fully functioning high-fidelity prototype with OAuth2 authentication and API connections fetching real data. The user will experience the prototype with her own stuff in it!
We do this by using React JS https://reactjs.org/ - a great JavaScript framework for building front-end components. We will even do some back-end to handle authentication eventually.
And yes, this is not Travis - David and MPJ are filling in!
