Library Update (PWA)

Quick Update – Lots of Progress!

Apologies for the delay in these updates, I’ve been deep in research and development, making sure this app stays aligned with modern best practices.

The app now runs inside a Docker container to streamline compatibility and make it easier for anyone interested in self-hosting. I’ve also adopted shadcn/ui as the primary UI library, which should significantly speed up development while maintaining a cohesive visual design across components. I’ve switched over to pnpm for package management to stay current with more modern tooling.

On the functionality side, the Google Books API has been successfully integrated and is fetching data as expected.

Looking ahead, I plan to implement shadcn/ui into this portfolio site as well, helping unify the visual language across all my apps. I’m also exploring turning the portfolio into a PWA to enable push notifications for update alerts, ensuring followers stay in the loop.
