Previous ship got rejected because it used demo credentials to login, so setup signup system.
There is no verification such as email OTP or link right now, but i think it works for now.
Before requesting a recertification, i will improve some other bits of Ui first.

if anyone is actually reading this logs, you will know i tried to hurry and ship early due to the lock in sidequest, update on that is, even tho my ship got rejected, i got an extra day to fix the issues and reship.

This looks so incomplete, but i need to ship for the lock in side quest, i hope it doesnt get rejected, i am short on time. anyways, lets see what happens.

This log is more of a rant than update, i wasted so much time on this, so i had this line of code commented, and when youre suppose to uncomment it, you must comment another line for it to work, so when uncommented that line, i forgot to comment the line i was suppose to comment. (i have used the word comment a lot, i hope its still making sense)

This caused this very long session of debugging, anyways, a little progress has been made on the quiz page, and how it will be done, but i want to submit this project for the lock in side quest, so i might ship it without that feature and then work on it later

Its not allowed to attach picture of code and i must attach a picture, so here is a picture of endpoint i created(and spend a lot of time to actually use it)

back after a long break, gotta do those 10 hours for lock in sidequest
Anyways
Worked On:

• Populating DB with multiple new paragraphs
• Added more fields for each word
• Improved UI a little

Worked On:

• Adding Login/Logout using JWT authentication
• Fetching words’ meanings from the backend
  ( i am aware of the shitty UI, i will work on when everything else is done)

So now user can select a paragraph they want to read and then hover over any word to fetch its meaning from backend, i have not setup the logic to add the hovered word to user’s weak words yet, thats what i will do very soon, and also setup secure login/logout with JWT authentication.

Changes:

• New Paragraphs Page
• Sample data of 2 paragraphs with each of their words meaning in DB

Next before moving to UI tweaks, I will be working on making each word of a paragraph a separate DOM element which when hovered, fetches its meaning from DB and shows it to use the user.

Changes:

• Made some cleanup changes to backend.
• Started working on home page (image is obviously unfinished)

Yap:
So i am really really bad with UI, my experience with UI is almost zero, but somehow i am doing it in react, so this is what i am up to now, to give an idea of how bad i am with UI, let me share my last 3 searches, what property in css stops a text inside container from breaking into lines, border syntax in css and shadow syntax.
So yeah, this is gonna take time, but i think its a simple project and shouldnt take longer.

First Log!!
Current Vision:

• I want to create an english vocabulary builder app, but i wanna make it different/effective by tracking user’s weak words and creating personalized MCQs based on these. So its main idea is user is given a paragraph to read, when user thinks they dont know a word, they can hover over the word to see its meaning, and by doing this they will automatically save it as their weak word, and after a few paragraphs user can create a quiz based on the weak words.

Progress:

• Initial Backend endpoints and models
• Backend user auth and login

Next:

• Gonna move to setup a basic frontend to interact with the app
