My process

Built with

• Semantic HTML5 markup
• CSS custom properties
• Flexbox
• React - JS library

What I learned

Really taking advantage of the Context API and Reducers. A big stepping stone for my journey into Redux.

Continued development

Maybe make it mobile responsive and style it better. Lord knows I can do better. Also, I'm sure there is a bug with the toggle functionality and I know what is causing it, but I just cannot solve it right now.

Useful resources

• React Beautiful Dnd - This helped me with the drag and drop functionality. The documentation is really good and easy to follow.
• React Toastify - Brilliant customizable toast library, loved it, will definately use again.
• John Smilga - He taught me most of what I know about React. The major thing here was the Context API
