API Generator Application

This is a full-stack application that allows users to generate, fetch, and clear book APIs dynamically. The backend is built with Node.js and Express.js, while the frontend uses React and Axios to interact with the API.

Features

• Generate API: Creates a list of books with randomly generated titles and author names.
• Fetch Data: Fetches the list of books generated by the API.
• Clear API: Clears the existing list of books from the API.
• Dark Mode: Toggle between light and dark mode.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React, Axios, Tailwind CSS
• Backend: Node.js, Express.js
• Database: JSON File (for simplicity)
• Hosting: Frontend (Vercel), Backend (Render)
