In this project, I created an invoice creation web application with Bolt.new. Powered by Bolt, this project uses NextJS, Tailwind CSS, Typescript and Supabase to handle user requests.

Features include a mobile responsive design, light/dark mode toggle, user authentication (email & Google sign-in), and user details and invoices created and updated in the database.

I made this project during the World's Largest Hackathon by Bolt.

I started this project after facing issues with getting my very own invoices online. There were tools online, but "I thought what if I created my own invoice application?" At the time, this was an ambitious project for me, requiring me to work with bits of a tech stack I wasn't so familiar with.

But then, I heard of Bolt and joined a livestream where they pitched their product. Then the hackathon was announced and I saw this as the perfect opportunity to work on this project.

Thankfully, Bolt did provide a builder pack, including a limited paid plan and tokens to get started. This was so helpful and I began working on the first step of my project - the landing page.

Since this was the first time I was using a text-to-code platform, I watched tutorials and videos posted by fellow participants of the hackathon to see how best I could begin my project.

I also began experimenting with different prompts to get a desired effect. My favourite part of this project has to be the user authentication and database setup in Supabase. Since Bolt easily integrates with Supabase to an existing Bolt project, I didn't have many issues setting up the database schema. However, I did face some issues working on the user auth, especially with the Google Sign-in provider.

After some days, that worked, but the hackathon was coming to a close, and I had to add more features and round up - while I was low on tokens! Anyway, I ended up submitting the project, which wasn't completely done, but was fairly useful.

My plan is to improve this project as soon as I can find some free time to do so. I have plans and a possible UI refresh to make it more refreshed.
