My Posts

I want to slightly rework the buttons on the welcome screen.
It seems that some users aren't aware that the buttons are interactive, I think it's an important thing to establish because it informs the user of what some of the buttons on the site look like and helps them to spot other interactive elements on the page.

My homepage has started to feel a bit stale.
It's functional, it flows, and it's all a design of my own. But I don't feel like it does a lot to demonstrate my FE potential - I want to level up the user journey, add a bit more flare to the interactivity and maybe use this opportunity to try out a new library.
At first I really didn't want to risk overwhelming myself with a bloated project or overwhelm users with too many moving parts. But looking at it with a more experienced POV, I can do more and I can do it better.

So I'm going to revamp the homepage, I want to keep the same idea of showing who I am through scrolling traversal - but better.

Because the user pages are dynamic, they don't count as being orphaned however I think it would be useful to be able to see my posts without having to log in, so I’ve created a page for that with its own endpoint.

I've made a new unlisted page for showing logs from a selected user. I might add a link to the navbar specifically  for my posts for the sake of having the page listed to prevent orphaned pages

The trickiest thing about adding search functionality for users has been working out how to display it.
Should I create a new page for it?
If I display the results on the /logs page
Should I have the results table replace the default table?
Should I do some CSS magic and have it grow into view?

I don't want to overcomplicate anything or trap myself in tech debt and I want whatever I do to be effective.

Profanity filter has been added and is working
Please do not test too rigorously XD

From here on this will be my main account. The next steps of development will be:

- Update the logs components to show username and format the date
- Add a search function
- Add a profanity filter
