I'm building the new version of Boardio

Boardio is starting to look outdated and I'm not happy anymore with the result. So I wanted to remake it from the ground up. The previous version was only a frontend application that lacked a lot of features. It was build with NextJS and react but I left the dark side and joined the sveltekit hype train. After working in it for a bit I can say that I like it a lot more. So I figured why not make a boardio remake with sveltekit and tailwindCSS. I'm going to take it even further and make a fullstack application from it. So yes you will be able to log in and everything will work except playing the games. Not all data will be real and some things will be hardcoded but it will be a lot better then the previous version.

So I told you guys already that I will be using sveltekit and TailwindCSS. But that's not everything, I will also use other technologies like Postgres for the database and prismaDB for the connection to the database. Authentication will be build fully from the ground up and I will not be using any Firebase type of stuff. The only thing I'm also going to use maybe is DaisyUI. It's also my biggest typescript project till this date. This all while I'm really busy with work for Campus 19 and my C projects. But this is more of a relaxing project for me because I can learn a lot of new stuff on my own pace and I don't have a deadline.

At the moment there is no demo version available of the new version but the old version can still be visited at raymaekers.nl. If there are any updates or a potential demo version I will post a blog about it and you can always check out my github for my latest projects and works. I hope your guys are as excited as I am. I will keep you guys posted!
