CRM using npm, mongoose

I'm trying to figure out why my app doesn't work. The prompts all work fine but I can't CRUD with them.

Hi just a quick one before anwser have you npm installed all dependencies ? 🙂

ie a file for your MongoDB connection string and then installing all the dependencies

What kind of error do you have?

Hi thanks for engaging, I got it figured out during support time with my TA. I'm on the next lesson now, snagged on a weather API

Just FYI, technically your current code has a bug. The mongoose.connect(process.env.MONGODB_URI, ); call is asynchronous, so you should be awaiting it. i.e. If for some reason it takes a long while to establish a DB connection, the subsequent call to userInput() could allow DB calls to be made before the DB is connected. Does this make sense?

Sounds good.
