+- created Prisma schema for PostgreSQL for database to store NFT data
+- Node.js backend with API endpoints to return NFT's based 
+  on max rank/price along with rarest traits
+  - lowest prices for rarity percentile to see if good deal
+- fetch all listings from leading marketplace (Magic Eden) to be 
+  able to identify which rare NFT's are on sale and be able 
+  to filter based on max price/filter
+- store previous sales data to check whether a buy at rarity 
+  percentile is a good deal
+- React FE to dynamically load NFT's based on rarity 
+  rank/price filter with ability to hide seen ones
