Wow - just in time! I wanted to tackle a bigger project with vue + typescript. I haven't used Express since i learned it a few years ago, so excited to work on that. And funny you mentioned Deno - that was on my to learn list too! Had it been ready, this project would have been the trifecta of every single thing on my to learn list!

Will start this tonight and excited to share any thoughts! You rock!

Hey there, thanks for the kind words. I was thinking I put together all that I have learnt from other people's tutorials, and give back. And in a way, it was just all a bunch of notes I made as I was coding stuff put together.

I do have to write my own libraries to solve problems that I can't find libraries to solve. But you are welcomed to criticise those or offer alternatives. Cheers mate, chat me up and I will be happy to help.

Oh btw, if you learn Node+express, you are learning parts of Deno. There's already a few Express-lookalike Deno modules. So don't worry about it!

Hey @calvintwr - I wanted to give you an update. I've been tackling this bit by bit. I reached step 3 and the whole Postgres bit got me stuck. The Postgres setup is tripping me up. I'm going through a quick course on it before I continue.

Either way - I've been saving feedback for little things I noticed. But as of the middle of step 3, I've been having a lot of fun in this new world! Really huge thanks for the write-up and I'll continue pushing in the next few days.

Hey there! What about Postgres that’s getting you stuck? Maybe I can help.
