Introduction

Hey all, this project will be a series. I don’t know how long the series will be as I’m still working on the project as I write these articles. I’ve wanted to build a chat app for quite some time. I came across an older tutorial (3 years ago) of Ben Awad (awesome YouTuber) doing a slack clone, which was perfect for me, so I’m following his approaches and making mine a updated version (a lot has changed in 3 years).

I wanted to practice building more complex projects. I’m learning a lot so far, like working with the PostgresSQL database, using Sequelize for the ORM, and connecting it with Graphql. So I’m hoping you guys can learn something too :) But that’s enough of the intro, let’s dive into the first part.
