Background

In India, we have a variety of dishes and each dish is a special dish of some state, but what if someone wants to make some dishes at their home, how they are gonna find the dish details?

So to provide a simple solution for the above problem I built the Indian dishes catalog.

Hope you enjoy it, please share your feedback in the comment.

How I built it

(How did you utilize MongoDB Atlas? Did you learn something new along the way? Pick up a new skill?)

I have never used MongoDB atlas before in any project, so I took this hackathon as an opportunity to learn MongoDB atlas and its services.

I started learning about the MongoDB atlas by following MongoDB university MongoDB Node.js Developer Path.

After getting some hands-on experience in university labs, I started working on the API for dishes and used express and Nodejs to build the API and MongoDB atlas as a data store.

Then I deployed the API on render as a web service to consume the API on the front-end of the project built with ReactJs and Chakra UI.

Atlas search was very new to me so to build the search functionality first I took the MongoDB Atlas Search course and learned how atlas search works and how can I use that in my project.

And that’s it for this topic. Thank you for reading.

Additional Resources/Info

I would like to thank MongoDB for providing such great courses and documentation, also I would recommend everyone to learn about MongoDB from mongodb university itself.
