#Intro
For this project, I experimented with several technologies that were new to me. I had barely looked into React or Redux, and my experience with Node servers and MongoDB was minimal. Many of the issues I ran into were a result of this inexperience, and I learned a lot from this.
#What Went Well
- The technologies work together: Despite working with so many new technologies, I was able to make them all integrate together. Getting the server to work in the front-end was particularly challenging, as I had never had to work with a single-page application. It was a challenging problem but I learned a lot by solving it.
- Coming up with a Minimum Viable Product: I had a lot of ideas for what I could do with this product and where I could take it. However, the core of my idea was always to have a simple drawing app where users could host and share their drawings. When I noticed certain aspects of the project going overscope, I at least had that basic app to fall back on.
