This is a web application built to provide words of encouragement and coping strategies, when dealing with various adverse feelings. It was created for the Turing School of Software and Design's Module 3 stretch-tech group project. The overall goal was to learn and implement a new technology, in a collaborative space.

• React framework with Hooks
• React Router
• Express.js server with Knex
• Connection with PostgreSQL Database
• Testing with Cypress
• Typechecking with PropTypes
• Deployment on Vercel and Heroku

• Deploying this app was a big win!
