For PHHS Chat we will be focusing on tools regarding web development.
Our frontend will be built in Next.js with a very simple Firebase backend, where most of the work is done for us.
Learn to code in a similar format to Duolingo. This is good if you are starting from zero web development or code experience. First, sign in and when it allows you to, put that you are interested in developing web-apps.
Next.js is a cutting-edge web development framework that has the primary benefit of being extremely fast with server-side rendering. The docs go into detail about why this is so beneficial for large web applications, and therefore why it is better for making an interactive webpage than plain React. Jump right into these if you already familiar with web development.
We will be using Firebase for their database and authentication.
