CODEBLOCK12

Add Calendar Events

Store events in src/data/calendar.json and create similar API routes.

Add Team Members

Create src/data/team.json with member info and current tasks.

Mobile Responsiveness Tips

1. 1. Use Tailwind breakpoints: lg: for desktop, default for mobile
2. Touch targets: Minimum 40px for buttons
3. Horizontal scroll: For Kanban board on mobile
4. Drawer navigation: Slide-in menu for mobile

Security Considerations

• - Store personal data in src/data/ (gitignored)
• Keep template data in the skill
• No authentication included - add your own if needed
• Run locally or behind a VPN

Troubleshooting

Port already in use?
