Book Releases
Full-stack application for discovering and tracking book releases, built with Angular, Laravel, and the Google Books API.
01 / Starting point
About the project
Book Releases brings upcoming and recent titles into one searchable application. Users can follow authors, track publication dates, and receive personalized recommendations.
02 / Constraints
Requirements
Combine external book data with user-specific tracking and avoid unnecessary repeat API calls.
03 / Implementation
Implementation
The Angular frontend gets book data through a Laravel backend and the Google Books API. MySQL stores user-specific data, while caching reduces repeat API calls and keeps response times short.
04 / Current state
The application combines book discovery with author tracking and publication dates. A Laravel API and caching layer connect external book data to user-specific records.
