React Internship Assignment – Art Institute of Chicago Artworks

A React application with a data table displaying artwork data from the Art Institute of Chicago API, featuring server-side pagination and persistent row selection.

Tech Stack

  • Vite – Build tool
  • React 19 with TypeScript
  • PrimeReact – DataTable and UI components

Features

  • Displays artwork data: title, place of origin, artist, inscriptions, start date, end date
  • Server-side pagination – Fetches data per page from the API (no mass data storage)
  • Row selection – Individual checkboxes, select/deselect all on current page
  • Custom selection overlay – Select n rows via input (limited to current page to comply with no-prefetch rule)
  • Persistent selection – Selections persist when navigating between pages (stored by ID only)

Setup

npm install
npm run dev

Build

npm run build

How to Deploy

Use Netlify, Cloudflare Pages, or another cloud provider. Do not use Vercel.

Netlify (from Git)

  1. Push this project to a public GitHub (or GitLab/Bitbucket) repository.
  2. Go to netlify.com and sign in.
  3. Click Add new site → Import an existing project.
  4. Choose your Git provider and select this repository.
  5. Netlify will read netlify.toml and set:
    • Build command: npm run build
    • Publish directory: dist Leave these as-is and click Deploy site.
  6. When the build finishes, your site URL will be shown (e.g. https://random-name-123.netlify.app). You can change it in Site settings → Domain management.

Netlify (drag & drop, no Git):

  1. On your computer run: npm run build
  2. Go to app.netlify.com → Sites → Add new site → Deploy manually.
  3. Drag and drop the dist folder (inside your project folder) into the drop zone.
  4. Netlify will give you a live URL.

After deployment

  • Use the live URL as your “Deployed Application URL” for the assignment.
  • If you use a custom domain later, you can add it in the provider’s dashboard (Netlify or Cloudflare).
