Going to finish up this internal tool for a client, and make some initial progress on my personal app's MVP as well : )
Authenticated my backend routes with JWT validation, did some client-side filtering, and solved an overlooked issue in React involving prop-drilling (need to research more about ContextAPI for total state management, just using it for auth at the moment!)
Clean up this MVP frontend with some fancy styles to make things look sparkly fresh before presentation to the client.
Happy hacking, everyone!
