Yes! I love using x (and xs) for functions over whatever the thing is (or things are).

Not a direct answer, but for an explanation and history of CORS, this was a fun talk at stangeloop last year: https://youtube.com/watch?v=0YJ-yhoJh2I

I knew I’d seen something like this, and was very happy to find this in my notes from a few years ago: https://devchallenges.io/

There are a few full-stack ‘challenges’, ultimately building up to a twitter and then trello clone. Maybe it’s the kind of thing you’re looking for? I’m not sure if the submit + review portion of the site is still a thing, but w/e, you can still take the ideas and build your own thing.

Here’s a quick article on it from the creator: https://dev.to/nghiemthu/8-projects-with-modern-designs-to-become-a-full-stack-master-2020-14j9

One thought I had when looking through these is that keeping the project small (e.g. an image uploader that adds a filter and renders it) might be preferrable to an otherwise larger/never-ending project. OR you could do more design work for a larger site if that’s the part of software you want to practice.

You might also look into coding ‘kata’ or something like advent of code, tho that’s definitely a different direction and lower-level scope.

Building stuff is fun! Good luck with it!

Maybe you could dig into a few open-source clients to see how they work with it?

E.g. someone shared a basic lemmy viewer in godot the other day: https://github.com/sevonj/gdlm - it’s rough but probably not too much to read through. Was posted in /c/godot: https://programming.dev/post/48482
