Reflection

• I am pleased that i was able to get most of the main requirements done this week despite some issues i had with my laptop
• I didn't manahge to compolete the part with the Radix component because i had some compatiblity issues with next 15 so i just left that and focussed on some other parts of the program
• Overall I am glad i got to practice my use of the docs 😅 just a bit frustrated that it made progress so slow
• I would have liked to play around more with the error pages and loading page, but that could be something i could maybe add to this project later
• One question I had was whether or not the children folders are also protected if you list the parent in the middleware. I wasn't entirely sure so I've only listed the parent folders in the middleware
• Also, should middleware go in the .gitignore or does it not really matter even if it is a public repo?

What bugs did I encounter? 🪲

• I feel like i encountered every bug that I was able to encounter this week 😔
• I had a lot of issues with my laptop due to some slow updates so it kept crashing unfortunately. However i managed to get it working on Sunday afternoon so i was able to get most of the stuff done
• The clerk docs were really useful this week even though i was referencing them every 5 minutes
• I did have a problem with the metadata where it said i couldn't export the main meta data on layout to a client page? I don't know if this is a next15 thing though because the metadata seemed to work okay last week
