About The Project

Product Name Screen Shot

Definitely still a work in progress! I learned a ton on this project: honing my React skills and understanding the best way to separate out my components, utilizing local storage, and experimenting with CSS-in-JS. I actually really like CSS-in-JS solutions, surprisingly. I thought they'd clutter up each component, but it actually makes it really easy to keep track of which styles are applied to which components or HTML elements. I really liked styled-components but I was having a tough time getting it to work with Material UI, so I went with Emotion.

In the future I'm planning on adding:

  • Better styling
  • Drag and Drop
  • Editing abilities
  • More fields for tracking when a user has started reading a book, or read a book
