#Devlog 2 – Building the Foundation

Today was a long development session where I spent most of my time building the structure and creating the core user interface of my social media website. I worked on designing the layout, creating reusable React components, and making neat navigation between different sections felt smooth and intuitive.

I also focused on building the main pages of the website, including the feed, profile section, and authentication screens. Along the way, I spent time refining the styling to make the platform look clean and modern while keeping the design responsive across different screen sizes.

A significant part of the session was dedicated to debugging and improving the user experience. Bugs have taken my mind, literally they make me so irritated as some were like so hard to find out even Ai couldn’t help and one them is still alive now roaming around my code for no reason I beleive, and Several small issues appeared during development, especially while connecting components and managing state, but each problem helped improve the stability of the project.

Overall, this was a productive milestone, and the project is now in a much stronger position for implementing social features. I am currently in confusion of data gathering like to get them from dummy Api or from other sources. Lets see what time can do to the project. Also i just learned to create custom Hooks in react, not sure will they change my website into something magical but atleast make them functional though.
Ideas are always welcome

Devlog1: My Codespace go kaboom

I was editing index.css of the vite just to test out different application of things and then i went to check out another website deployment and when i returned it, the connection was lost so I reloaded the page and then everything was gone and a similar pop up that’s in the screenshot popped.

So all the files were gone and then retried installing the vite modules and bootsrap from the terminal it says command not found. I asked github chat nearby that check why vite is not getting installed so it said to install node, then i realised lets create a new repository.

Reason- Github codespace already provides environment for these things which we generally have to install on a desktop , so installing one will again create a huge mess and will also affect deployment indirectly.

All the progress is gone but its never too late to start again
