This was built with React, Node, and Express.
It takes input from the user via text or speech-to-text, translates that query into a request to the Ergast Developer API, and returns the results as text.

This will start the compiler in watch mode (auto-updates after file changes are made) as per tsconfig.json. This will allow you to make changes to Search.ts.
