Hello-Laravel

Hello-Laravel is a Laravel based (duh) unhinged excuses generator, where you can get excuses to bring you out of the blunders created by yourself (or make everything worse, effectivity is not granted).
With it, users can add, edit, delete and get custom excuses, defined by:

Category -> Work, School, etc.
Risk -> Has a severity score (1-10) and a risk tag (like “moderate”, “nuclear” or “you’ll get fired soon”)
Believability rate -> How believable is the excuse (from 0 to 100%)
Chaos score -> A server-side calculated mathematical formula to get how bad the situation is (bigger is worse), defined as: 100 + Severity score - Believability rate
Excuse -> The excuse itself (like “My dog ate the database)

Challenges:

Tom-Select -> It was hard to figure out how to set it up properly
Laravel and PHP -> It was my first dive into PHP and at Laravel. Before that, my only experience with backend web frameworks were Flask and a bit of Django
Deploying -> It was my first time ever deploying a website

What I’m proud of:

Overcame challenges -> Now I know how to setup Tom-Select or write PHP code
Learned tools -> Now I know how to write pages using Tailwind CSS, for example, or use ssh to access a remote terminal session
Availability -> I can send the link to anyone and proudly announce “I built this all”

Hello guys! Today I was finally able of deploying this little silly website, so you all can generate chaos and unhinged excuses without further setup! I used Hackclub’s Nest platform, and found it way more intuitive and easy than other platforms, and is also 100% free, so thank you guys! The only issue was setting the setup.sh file (the code on picture), but after a brave battle against root user, daemons, .env files, ports, hosts, and Vite, I announce I came victorious!

Recently, I’m miserably failing to deploy Hello-Laravel website.

Why are there no more devlogs? Simply: I created the Stardance project page just now and just now discovered that devlog meant posting here. I was doing a whole DEVLOG.md thinking it was enough. Here’s a piece of it:

Project Context & Progression

I started brainstorming and prototyping the initial core engine of this project shortly before discovering Stardance and creating the GitHub repository. At that stage, the project was completely raw and missing the vast majority of its current features.

Approximately 50% to 70% of the entire project - Including the terminal style, the finished CRUD operations, TomSelect integrations, mobile optimization, and overall production polishment - was built entirely from scratch during my hours logged for Stardance. […]
