Feromone_Demo_Vid.mp4
Feromone is a full stack bug tracking application written in TypeScript with React for the front-end and styled with Tailwind CSS and Chakra UI. The back-end uses GraphQL w/ Apollo Client and MongoDB for the DB. Feromone allows you to track bugs in your applications/projects based on their severity.
Feromone was built for a client - a freelance programmer, to allow them to keep track of their bugs via a clean, minimalistic bug tracker that has dark mode included. The version pushed to GitHub has some key features missing that are only available in the client's version. They wanted to have some features that allowed them to keep track of what bugs came from which clients and what projects. A future feature will be added to the GitHub version that allows the separation of bugs into different 'Projects'. This allows different bugs to be tracked based on the project at hand.
Well, Pheromones are actually chemicals released by organisms (Humans, Ants, Bees, etc...) and have an effect on nearby organisms. As pheromones are used by Ant species to track each other, I thought it would make sense to call this bug-tracking application 'Feromone' as a nod to the behaviour of Ants and the way they communicate with each other and find their way back home. Just as the Ants can track other bugs, we too can track our pesky bugs.
