Integration with the external API

Why?
We will need to store the data that is present on the phone's core data onto a universal database so that it is accessible by everyone on all platforms.

What type of information needs to be stored outside of the app?
IMO a variation of the information similar to that found in the screenshot below

I am thinking of the following API calls:

• get /projects -> gets a list of all the projects with all of the information related to each individual projects.
• post /projects -> add a new project, start/stop a new timer.

Things that I'll need to figure out:

• Ability to make an API call (using HTTP to start with)
  • eventually, we need a bidirectional flow of data using sockets or something equivalent.
• What kind of data format should be used for sending/receiving the data? (JSON 🤔)
