FCD Community Project #1: Vote for your favorite!
The Full Cycle Dev community has grown by over 250 discord members over the last day. To celebrate, we'll go full cycle on a community suggested SaaS product idea. And every one of you gets to vote!
Over the last day, we grew by a lot of members and suggestions for the first project were posted in the discord channel.
I took the liberty of curating the suggestions and to summarize them in this post. Some important and often-needed features will definitely be included in the first project, while we decided to hold a vote on the more specific topics.
Community project #1 will likely be done and streamed on Friday, Nov 10th, pending some availability checks. Make sure to follow on Twitter/X to be notified!

We will cover the following areas as a basis, in order:
Setting up the code base, with django, PostgreSQL, redis, celery and more. All in docker.
User registration, verification emails
Adding everything to version control, github in this case.
Launching locally and explaining the generated stack.
Renting a Virtual Private Server (VPS), and setting that up.
Configuring a domain to point to the server.
Deploying the web app to the VPS.
Setting up CI/CD to automatically re-deploy on pushes/merge on main branch.

We will start with the poll winner.
Depending on time left, we will also cover the other options.
