Technology choices:

UI:

• React
• Typescript
• styled-components
• use component lib? - final if time permits so i can do before and after quickly

API : REST(Express) vs graphQL

• node (bun or deno if time permits)
• express vs graphql ......... REST is fast and easy...

DB:

• MongoDB vs RDB see: DB for more details on this call

Models:

• Recipe
• Curation
• User? (implied but not required by test)

User Stories

• View all the recipes in my 'favorites' library.
• Create custom lists to organize my recipes.
• Display user’s curated recipe lists.

Backend

• Develop an API endpoint that provides the list of recipes for the user library. - GET /recipe
• Develop an API endpoint to add a recipe to a new or existing list - PUT /curation/:id/recipe/:recipe_id
• Develop an API endpoint to fetch a list of curations - GET /curation

Frontend

• Build My Favorites page: to browse all the recipes of a user
• Build My Lists page: to present all curations, with each curation appearing as a horizontal list with title and its associated recipes
• Implement a feature on the My Favorites page that enables users to add a recipe to a new or existing list.
