This pull request entails most of the changes I made in the client files and controller files in the backend to get the endorsement feature to work. This feature was unfortunately unable to meet the set milestone as it did not live up to all the preset metrics for success. However, on using the endorsement feature, a fetch API is dispatched to the backend to update the 'endorsed_by_Instructor' field in the database. The PR also entails multiple changes to the front-end files in public/src/client/ to modify the click event and dispatch both a hook and a fetch API where the API returns a response indicating the failure or success of the task which is to update the endorsed field of that particular post in the database. While this feature only works to a certain limited point and the milestone for this feature has not been met in full, the overall code used in implementing this feature is tremendously versatile. It can easily be recycled and reused for other tasks in the future.
