Build me a simple MERN practice app that helps a student learn the basics of full stack development.

I want a clean, easy to understand project with a backend and a simple front end, so I can see how the pieces fit together. Make it something useful, like a small notes, tasks, or study tracker app, with basic create, view, update, and delete actions. Keep the code beginner friendly, with clear structure and comments where they help.

Please set it up so the app can run locally without much hassle, and include any important setup steps in the project. If you need to check current docs online for the best way to wire things up, go ahead and do that.

Also, make the project feel polished enough that I can learn from it by reading the code, not just by running it.
