A Wonky Interactive Javascript Page on a Rails API

A beginner’s project under a perfectionist’s mindset can be very frustrating. Out of all my projects so far, this one has been the most frustrating because there are so many more details, and more open ends.

First there is the very minimalistic, yet not very aesthetically pleasing layout and design aspects. At least I tried to use the css grid layout, so hopefully it keeps things easy to read.

Then there is the Rails API, which have been stripped of its original user login functionalities from my previous House Hold Task Manager project. I don’t know what aspects of my previous Rails backend application would break now that it’s been spun up in its API form, so I kept only what was necessary for the Javascript project requirements.

And lastly, there is the inexplicable server errors and functionalities that work sometimes, but not others, all else being exactly the same (in my mind).

Sometimes when we shoot for the moon, we get the stars. In this case, we get stranded in a muddy pile of confusion. I look forward to solidifying my knowledge in the upcoming JS modules. I am but only a novice.

I take a deep breath, let go, and begin anew.
