    Kilo Code Personal > Task: Create a social network in Next.js. 0 256.0k API Request... Thinking 0s The task is: "Create a social network in Next.js. Design the specs, create the DB schema and generate the code" Breaking down the task • The task involves creating a social network using Next.js, with three main components: designing specifications, creating a database schema, and generating code. • This is a multifaceted project requiring careful planning to ensure each part integrates seamlessly. • Designing specs will outline features like user profiles, posts, and interactions, setting the foundation for development. • Creating a DB schema will define how data like users, posts, and connections are stored and related, ensuring scalability and efficiency. • Generating code will involve implementing the frontend with Next.js, focusing on UI components and API routes for social features. • Each step builds on the previous, starting with specs to guide schema design, then coding to bring the network to life. • The system will handle real-time updates, with advanced features like user profiles, posts, and connections, ensuring a smooth user experience. Planning development steps • Generating code will involve implementing the frontend with Next.js, focusing on UI components and API routes for social features. • Each step builds on the previous, starting with specs to guide schema design, then coding to bring the network to life. • Creating a new social network project requires organizing files in a dedicated directory, separate from the existing Tetris game workspace.

Todo List Updated Create dedicated directory for social network project Initialize Next.js project in the new directory Design specs and DB schema using Architect mode Generate code using Code mode based on design API Request... Thinking 0s The todo list is created. Now, proceed with the first task: Create dedicated directory for social network project. Setting Up Project Structure • A todo list is ready, starting with creating a dedicated directory for the social network project. • The workspace is currently set for tetris_game, so a new 'social_network' directory will be created within it. Kilo Code wants to create a new subtask in code mode. → Subtask Instructions Create a new directory named 'social_network' in the current workspace (/Users/darko/WebstormProjects/tetris_game). Then, initialize a new Next.js project inside the 'social_network' directory using 'npx create-next-app@latest social_network' and use default settings.
