Problem Statement: Trending Evil Aliens

This is the HARD 1000 points competition that the Evil Aliens have given to the people of Earth. Learn More and Register for this competition before submitting a solution to this problem.

The evil aliens need to find out what the world is saying about their demands and to know that they need us to create a listing of reddit posts with a feature for them to filter on keywords. They want you to integrate Reddit APIs that return stories and implement a filter option on the page to filter stories about them. (for example 'alien')

What do you need to do?

• Create a React List Component that can load the data from Reddit API.
• Create a React Card Component that renders each data item.
• Add a new tab in the header at the left side of 'About' tab name it 'Reddit' https://monosnap.com/file/mYO8xcnOzHePI73ERdigYO6ImSBwIA
• Once clicked on the 'Reddit' tab, the List data should be rendered on the website.
• Create a Filter panel under the main navigator to allow the Evil Alien to filter stories based on hashtags. This needs to be a server-side filter, so once you change the filter, you should re-fetch the list data from your API.
• Make sure there is pagination implemented in your stories listing by creating a pagination control at the bottom of your list component. The data at the client-side should not have more than one-page data. That means, each page navigation, you need to re-fetch the corresponding page data from Reddit API.
• As you know Alien's don't need a fancy UI, so keep it simple and readable.
