Welcome! I used to be a happy app, now I'm incomplete
This is a sample starter you can use to create whatever project you'd like However, here's a recommendation:
Make a todo app, that stores your todos in a mysql database Here are the steps you'd need to follow to make this happen:
- Grab todos from json.placeholder api and store them in the client's state to start (check out axios)
- Setup a way to add more todos to state and create the todo functionality
- Connect your server and database, setup your table(s?)
- Delete your local state from the client, instead, your server should seed the database when you turn it on (OR create a seed script in your package.json to seed the database from json.placeholder) - use the request module (or axios if you feel comfy with request)
- Connect your client to now your now functioning server/db
- Add any additional functionality you'd like! Some ideas - timestamps (check out momentJS), a calendar, multiple states for todos (not just active/done), multiple lists, login/logout to connect todos to a specfic user
