Omnifood-Project-Vue-TailwindCSS

A learning projeect based on Jonas Schmedtmanns "Build Responsive Real-World Websites with HTML and CSS" Udemy Course

To learn frontend development I adapted the project that it is completely build with Vue and TailwindCSS. It is a plain Single Page Application without any Backend functionality, and not the peak of software engineering. The main goal of this project for me was to build a modern website while learning new technologies.

A hobby project to bring Surfschools and Surfinstructors together

Work In Progress. The backend is based on Kotlin, SpringBoot and MongoDB, the frontend is written in VueJS and TailwindCSS. As of 15.03.2023 the projects backend offers routes to register and signin users. Signing in is realized via JWT. The frontend offers views for register, login as well as a header.
