Next.js Jokes App

A simple jokes application built with Next.js, featuring a modern UI with Tailwind CSS and a PostgreSQL database with Prisma ORM. This application is ready to deploy on Blossom.

Getting Started

2. Set up environment variables: Create a .env file in the root directory with the following variables:

   For local development, you can use SQLite by not setting the DATABASE_URL variable.
