Introduction

NOTE: Continuously updatingā€¦
This blog is meant to document my journey in developing an application with React Native + Typescript and NodeJs alongside Flask. I guess this page serves as a way of accountability throughout the development process.
This is my first official blog; nevertheless, I will strive to make it as flawless as possible. I accept any and all feedback in the comments.

The existing ideas did well to benefit from the Netflix/Game Pass-type models. I felt it could be better; however, at the time, I thought it be left to someone else to me it better; ā€œIā€™m just a university studentā€, I thought to myself.
What changed? The desire to see this idea/application come to life refused to burn outā€¦
