✅ Modern Frontend Stack: Harnessed React's component-based architecture and unidirectional data flow for a modular and scalable single-page application (SPA).
✅ State Management: Utilized RTK Query's caching and reactive capabilities to efficiently manage application state and provide real-time updates.
✅ TypeScript Integration: Implemented TypeScript for enhanced code maintainability, better tooling, and improved developer productivity.
✅ Express Server: Constructed an Express server on the Node.js runtime environment, leveraging middleware design patterns for modular routing and controller logic.
✅ NoSQL Database: Composed a MongoDB document-oriented database for flexible data schemas and rapid prototyping, facilitated by Mongoose for schema validation and community support.
✅ Transaction Management: Employed Mongoose transactions to ensure atomicity, consistency, isolation, and durability (ACID) when updating user preferences across multiple collections.
✅ Component Composition: Decomposed the user interface into smaller, reusable components for better code organization and maintainability.
✅ State Lifting: Implemented state lifting to manage user preferences efficiently across multiple components.
