Motivation

Hello Everyone...

I am Vipin Gautam , 23 . I am a frontend developer. I always got curious how to manage finance in an effective way but I was so confused how & what tools are good for beginners .

Basically I was not able to find a common portal . So I thought to build a tool a aggregate all the common tools at one place SALARYGRAM

Why I choose NextJs to build ?

Main Reason :

  • It supports SSR
  • It has great support for images
  • We can write own own APIs
  • Documentation is really good

Other Reasons

  • Best SEO practices.
  • Fully server-rendered pages.
  • Caching and Automatic Static Optimization built-in.
  • 100% React support.
  • Page/Routes creation is much easy.
  • API support become easy.
  • Support TypeScript out of box.
  • Module based support.
  • Obviously SSR based framework.

What I have implemented in Salarygram ?

  • In-page referring using next/link.
  • Page based Dynamic routing.
  • Handling data from static files(not recommended, should be backed by Backend)
  • Added Google Analytics :it is very easy in Nextjs.
  • Module based css.
  • Sharing option is used .
