Day 23: Finalize & Deploy – Frontend Apps Checkpoint
Goal: Complete and deploy your frontend application.
● Hours: 4
● Tasks:
○ Perform final testing and bug fixes.
○ Add finishing touches (animations, transitions, better error handling).
○ Deploy your application on a free hosting platform (e.g., Netlify, Vercel).
○ Outcome: You have successfully met the “Frontend Apps” checkpoint!
By following this structured plan, you’ll progress from the fundamentals of HTML/CSS and
JavaScript to building and deploying a modern React‑Tailwind application—all while using
version control and collaborative practices as outlined in the roadmap.
