Projects

Worked with the PlanetScale team to develop a message board.

Posts are written in Markdown, images can be dragged in, and people can respond with a ❤️ or a comment. When new posts are published, the Beam Slack app posts in one of our channels.

It is built with Next.js and uses a PlanetScale database for storage. Spinning up your own instance on Vercel is very simple. Authentication can be configured with GitHub or Okta.
