My journey

I'm building a full-stack task manager application to level up my development skills. Here's my journey!

πŸ› οΈ Tech Stack

  • Frontend: React + Vite
  • Backend: Node.js + Express
  • Database: PostgreSQL
  • Goal: Learn full-stack development hands-on

πŸ“… Day 1: What I Built

Today I set up:

  • Project structure with frontend/backend separation
  • Basic Express server running on port 5000
  • React app with Vite
  • First API endpoint that actually works!

⏭️ Next Steps

Tomorrow I'm tackling authentication!


Follow along as I document this journey! πŸš€
