Finding a common date to meet up with friends is always a pain, so I decided to build a simple website to solve this. Built with Svelte, Tailwind, and Drizzle, it lets people select available dates and quickly find the best time to meet up.
I chose Svelte because of its reputation for being minimal and super fast. It removes the need for complex state management, making it easier to build interactive apps than with React or Next.js. As always, I used Tailwind for quick styling without the clutter, and Drizzle—my ORM of choice—makes working with SQL way easier (especially for an idiot like me 😅).
This project was a fun way to learn new tools while solving a real problem. If you want to check it out, you can find the site here: set-the-date.com.
