My first real CRUD app took 5 tries, but the delete button finally works

Started in February with just a todo list, and kept messing up the database connections every single time. Last week I got the whole thing running locally on my MacBook in one sitting, including the edit form that used to crash whenever I typed an apostrophe. The big shift happened when I stopped copying code from tutorials and wrote my own route handlers line by line, even if mine were uglier. Now I'm wondering if I should learn SQL joins next or just practice making the front end look less like a 1998 website. Anybody else have that moment where your own messy code finally makes sense?

Ha! Wait til you discover joins make your data feel like a spiderweb of weird connections!
