Fresh project with a decent start. Tests and CI now will set it apart.
This is a full-stack Expense Management application built using the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, and Node.js). The application is designed to help users efficiently track and manage their daily expenses in a simple and organized way.
A low grade is a to-do list, not a judgment of your code
