Liew19/Expense-Tracker — reverse-engineered prompt
Reverse engineered prompt
Build me a full stack expense tracker app that I can run locally and deploy later. I want users to be able to register, log in, and then manage only their own expenses.
The main flow should be simple. After login, show a dashboard with a list of expenses, add expense form, edit and delete actions, filters, and pagination so the list doesn’t get too long. Each expense should have the normal details like amount, category, date, and description. Please make the app feel clean and easy to use, not overly fancy.
Use React for the frontend, Node with Express for the backend, MySQL for storage, and JWT based login sessions. The database tables should be created from the provided SQL or automatically in local development if that’s already part of the project. Include basic validation, protected API routes, and a health check endpoint.
Also include internationalization support if it’s already intended in the app. Make sure the setup works with npm install and npm run dev, and keep the Vercel deployment setup working.
