While working on my previous project MemeBoard, I got a bit too addicted with the realtime chat part of the app and overengineered it way too much, so I decided to build an app focused on chatting and sharing code with other people
This is also an excellent opportunity for me to learn more about WebSockets, Socket.io, Node, and Linux server configuration/management since I’m planning to host this app on a dedicated DigitalOcean VM instead of the serverless Vercel
In this update, I set up the basic project structure with an empty backend directory and a frontend directory for the Next.js frontend, installed the necessary dependencies, and set up the Prisma database for auth
