I’ve been stuck in a mini-intentional tutorial hell for a while now. But now that the aims have been pretty much achieved, it’s time to break out of the loop.
I’m finally building my own unique full-stack app with CRUD functionality. It’s going to run on Next.js with a MongoDB backend. I’ll use Tailwind for styling, Shadcn-UI for components, and React-Hook-Form for forms. Server Actions and API routes will implement the CRUD functionality, Redux Toolkit will manage state, and Auth.js will handle authentication.
It’s really going to be an amalgamation of all my tutorial hell learning points. After completing this project, I’ll redo my CV and portfolio, and then dive into PostgreSQL for backend development. Knowing that my goals are a marathon and not a sprint, I’ve signed up for a regular 9-to-5 alongside this learning. Long-term, this should all really make sense.
