Look inside

It’s your fourth week with SongRiver, a music-streaming web platform whose success is climbing the charts. Beta testers for the employee directory app you’ve been building are singing your praises, and they have a new request: they’d like to celebrate employees with badges that spotlight their contributions. You’ll use Chakra UI to create a grid of employee badges and add badge information to the employee page. Using React Query, you’ll add functionality for sending badge data to the server, then display a “toast” (pop-up) message that communicates whether or not the badge submission was successful. When you’re done, you’ll have a people-pleasing, connection-boosting feature that adds and displays employees’ badges, and you’ll have earned a “Rock Star” badge of your own.

Some sections may contain information that is now outdated due to the rapid advancements in the technology field, notably the initial libraries, Docker setup, and some documentation links. Regardless, this liveProject remains an invaluable resource for intermediate users.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
