[Dharmen]

I have just finished the quizmify project today and about to move to complete other project from some othe source but see you dropped this, another top-notch work of yours. Now I have to complete this first ...any way learning a lot from you..HUGE RESPECT BRO.

I have never worked with Stripe before, this is my sign to start 🎉

[mmzzzmeemee]

Absolutely insane! this is top-tier content.
Would be nice to see something similar but using drizzle instead of prisma

[manavshah]

It's such a great project idea🎉🎉
Great video

[roberth]

Awesome videos - keep it up. Only request is to record these code videos in at least 1440p - much more readable!

Finally finished building the project step by step, following Elliott's guidance. I've learned so much as a beginner, and I'm definitely planning to revisit everything for a deeper understanding. Thank you so much, Elliott! Your knowledge and explanation skills are amazing. You would undoubtedly be successful as a YouTuber and a developer!!

[rockbelleh]

I just started so I don't know how this is going to go, but I have to say right out the bat THANK YOU for not deploying on Vercel and using a VPS instead, a skill that employers will actually use lol, Vercel is good for hobby projects only. They're like the drug dealers who give you the good stuff and then charge you an arm and a leg once you're hooked (once you need to scale).

[uminhtetoo]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, Sir.

[TheMessiah]

this guy is the real deal. keep up the majestic work dude! Google/Apple wya 👀👀

[olaniranemmanuel]

[BCSBhaveekJain]

Really cool man. Thank you for teaching all of this

[uwcunte]

Looks like this guy is Singaporean. Great to learn from you.

For people who are facing internal Server error 500, Plz note that OpenAI doesn't provide free api credits from now onwards. You have to pay minimum 5 dollars to access the credits. Hope people will notice.Don't worry the project will work fabulously.
