Comments

The goal was to (1) fetch data in real-time and dynamically (dates and company ticker not hard-coded), (2) plot the received data onto a React Chart.js. Since I had already worked with Axios before, I implemented here the native fetch() method with its double promise — to experiment with something new. A short but enjoyable project!
