DevOps Infrastructure Interview Challenge

Overview

During a heycar team social event, the DevOps team have hit a wall where they were unable to decide upon what the team’s favourite Pocketmonster is. The team have come up with an app that will display the Pocketmonsters stats and movesets based on name and are looking to present this in the next Engineering Tech Hub, which will help the team in making a definitive decision.
