   cd backend

2. Run the API:

   dotnet run

   The API will be available at https://localhost:7186/api/projects

Frontend (React)

Evaluation Structure (1 Hour Total)

Frontend Task (30 minutes)

Add sorting functionality to the project list table. Users should be able to sort by:

• Project name
• Status
• Start date

Include visual indicators for sort direction.

Backend Task (30 minutes)

Add a new endpoint /api/projects/stats that returns:

• Total number of projects
• Count of projects by status
• Average project duration

Update the frontend to display these statistics.
