Build a simple, sample application with Tensei (and share your knowledge about it)

[bahdcoder]

Heeey. Welcome to Tensei 👋🏾

The best way to learn Tensei is to build a simple application with it. This task requires you to build a simple API with Tensei, and optionally build a frontend for the application using one of our supported SDKs. (Javascript SDK, Next.js sdk or React sdk).

Here are example applications (APIs) you can build with Tensei:

• Build a Todos API with Tensei. Create, Fetch, Edit, Delete Todos.
• Build an Authenticated Todos API with Tensei. Authenticated users can create, fetch, edit, delete their own todos.
• Build a Forums API. Users can create, delete, edit their own posts under categories. Admins can create, delete, edit categories. Users can comment on other's posts, edit and delete their comments.
• Build a simple book store API with Tensei and stripe.

You may pair any of these APIs with your favourite frontend technologies such as React, Vue, Angular, Svelte, Next, Nuxt.

Bug hunting

A great advantage of this exercise is finding bugs with Tensei and reporting them. If you run into any issues, please do not hesitate to open an issue and we'll respond to it as soon as possible.

Had fun building an application? Great. Please, take some time to write an article about Tensei. Share it with us in the comments here, or on Twitter. It would be an amazing addition to the community.

Hi, @bahdcoder I just watched your video on YT on your askuser.io series and you mentioned you created Tensei. This is an amazing tool. I really want to contribute to it (When I have time i.e lol) because I have been looking for a project to contribute to and something from the continent makes it even more worthwhile. So I will build my first project and get back to this.
