This project is not used since a long while >> horrible structure and tech debt, not proud of this one.

Design-wise: great - tech debt wise and structure: I'm not proud.

This project is made public FOR LEARNING PURPOSES ONLY, it is not meant as a template, nor as a starting point.

Feel free to go through the components and structure, there ARE mistakes. Current project is on Adonis Inertia React with much better structure and architecture. I have no idea what I was thinking separating items based on pages/routes vs global utils, components, helpers, and functions.

To take a bullet: I hate making this public. However, it is a testament to how far I've grown as a developer - being able to look at this code and cringe, maybe is a privellage?

Either way, this was my first production project using a de-couple frontend/backend, and sadly there was a lot of planning done (might not seem visible at first), a lot of silly looking commits, crash-out commits - BUT remember: this was done by a developer that was getting one of his first production projects out, and I've learned a great deal building this.

1. Using Cloudinary to store image files and getting URL back (can use previous storage drive implementation for inspiration)

2. There must be two types of images: (optional now, mandatory in production)

   1. Main image that MUST exist on a blog
   2. Secondary, user Images that can exist anywhere in the blog, however with a forced resolution and alt text below

Blog cards will be auto made like this

King Ko version depreciated >> new version is Adonis, and the backend is in Adonis

Close proximity tasks are (on top of blog cards for blog parser and fetcher):

1 - Blog parser for the frontend (done >> needs to be remade with UI/UX considerations)

3 - Blog resource fetcher with no authentication required for the frontend (TODO)

4 - Caching of heavy pages, like blogs. (TODO)

!! Watch for ignore pages in astro.config.mjs >> don't accidentaly ignore pages that we will later re-add

24-04-2025: I really dislike my current structure: It was done in good faith, but it has created a problem it was meant to prevent - and makes finding files a bit tricky and uncomfortable.

There is too much un-necessary component separation going on, especially on the Home and Dashboard pages (TODO)

Ironically - I did keep it live so you can see the project live. Again, it's depreciated in favor of a monolith Adonis web app - but feel free how each part works and interacts with each other.

Also - the blog system is horrendous lol, I've since made a significantly better version.

--- Local anchors work for SEO --- Backlinks from authoritative site work well too --- Long term: build site authority

--- No follow / No index on Login, Register, Admin Panel, and other parts of the site (I forgot what I meant here)
