u/SinkThemAll

Hey!

I'm new to the dev world and I started this app with a school friend who had this tea app idea for years...

What started as an end-of-year full-stack project turned into something we couldn't stop working on after graduation. So here we are.

What is TeaCorner?
An app for adding, managing, brewing, and sharing tea. The UI is intentionally minimalist — we want the focus to stay on the real-life experience of making tea. We're also designing a 'focus mode', where users can challenge themselves to meditate and be present during the brewing process.

The stack:

• Frontend: React + React Router + Tailwind CSS
• Backend: NestJS
• Database: PostgreSQL
• Hosting: self-hosted on a private VPS

You can play around with our Figma prototype here: https://www.figma.com/proto/WIHaXhHJBHvtw3wAUwwbDQ/TeaCorner?page-id=0%3A1&node-id=5715-2412&viewport=5274%2C-4398%2C0.51&t=m9lm6f32Yb2WRubL-1&scaling=min-zoom&content-scaling=fixed&starting-point-node-id=5715%3A2412

For now, I'm only sharing the design part because the app is still being built and it is not complete enough to be shown.

We're two indie devs working on this in our spare time — always open to feedback, technical or otherwise. What would you have done differently?

Thanks for your time! 🍵
