Calendly Clone

Build a Full-Stack Calendly Clone with Next.js & Modern Tech

This project provides a step-by-step video tutorial for creating a feature-rich Calendly clone. Developers will learn to integrate Next.js for server-side rendering and API routes, React for dynamic UIs, Tailwind CSS for styling, Prisma as an ORM with Neon serverless Postgres, Clerk for authentication, and Shadcn UI for components. It's an excellent resource for mastering contemporary full-stack development practices and building scalable web applications for scheduling.

Features:

• Full-Stack Development: Tutorial covers building both frontend and backend for a scheduling application.
• Next.js Framework: Utilizes Next.js for server-side rendering, API routes, and React application structure.
• React for UI: Employs React for creating interactive and dynamic user interfaces.
• Tailwind CSS Styling: Implements responsive design using the utility-first Tailwind CSS framework.
• Prisma ORM: Demonstrates database interaction and management with Prisma.
• Neon Serverless Postgres: Integrates Neon as the serverless PostgreSQL database provider.
• Clerk Authentication: Implements user sign-up, sign-in, and session management using Clerk.
• Shadcn UI Components: Leverages Shadcn UI for building polished and accessible UI elements.
• Environment Configuration: Details setup of crucial .env variables for services like Clerk and database connection (DATABASE URL, NEXT PUBLIC CLERK PUBLISHABLE KEY, CLERK SECRET KEY).
• Scheduling Functionality Focus: Guides the creation of core features analogous to Calendly for appointment and event scheduling.

Summary:

This tutorial guides developers through constructing a comprehensive, full-stack Calendly clone. It leverages a modern technology stack including Next.js, React, Tailwind CSS, Prisma, Neon, Clerk, and Shadcn UI. The project teaches effective integration of these tools to create a functional and scalable scheduling application, covering UI development, styling, database management, and robust user authentication, as detailed in the associated YouTube video.
