▸ OVERVIEW

ABOUT THE PROJECT

This full-stack web application is designed to deliver a seamless, modern user experience powered by a robust backend. Built from the ground up with React on the frontend and Node.js + Express on the backend, the application communicates through a clean REST API with MongoDB as the database layer.

The goal was to create something that feels fast, reactive, and intuitive — combining real-time data updates with secure user authentication to build a platform that could scale. Every decision in the stack was made with performance and maintainability in mind.

▸ CURRENT STATUS
ACTIVELY IN DEVELOPMENT — GITHUB REPO COMING SOON

The project is currently under active development. Core features including authentication, the API layer, and the React frontend are built. The GitHub repository and live demo will be published here once the project reaches its first stable release.
