Whiskey Notes
An online book of whiskey tasting notes, inspired by 33 Books.
I wanted a way to take notes on every whiskey I try in a simple, memorable format that has the fields I need. Paper and pencil are fine, but if you're out a bar/restaurant, having something quick and easy is key, and then the digital library is there forever.

Learning:
In the process of building this application, I wanted to try out technologies that I'm uncomfortable with in an effort to learn. Here's an ongoing list of things I implemented that were brand new or rusty for me:
- React
- React router
- Firebase w/ re-base & user authentication (thanks @tylermcginnis for tools and examples)
- Webpack build w/ Babel (thanks @henrikjoreteg for hjs-webpack)
- Eslint with Standard (thanks @btholt for starter config)
- Sass mixins
- Pre-rendered index.html for performance
- Static file deployment to Surge.sh
Development:
npm install
npm start
