i would work on this issue! @Aaishpra @khushishikhu please suggest what backend tech stack i can use, am comfortable with node js , express js and mongo db! would be happy to learn other tech stacks as well and solve this

[khushishikhu]

@akshay1027 If you really want to go forward in the backend issue please go with this tech stack only you are familiar with. And It is a humble request from both the maintainers that post your queries on the discord channel so that we can keep track of the work. Thank you

[akshay1027]

Sure! So I will use Mongo DB for this, later you configure a cluster for yourself..! @Aaishpra @khushishikhu

[khushishikhu]

@akshay1027 okay, you can and someone else is also working on the backend thing with MongoDB. Let's see if it will not create any crash

[akshay1027]

I will be using MVC architecture, hope the other contributor uses the same! Most people use this for the backend. (Model, Controller, Routes)

@akshay1027 I am the one who is planning for backend we can discuss on this and then do the same Mongo DB atlas is what i am thinking of too Do let me know the further things

[akshay1027]

Great! Share me your backend folder structure, I will also follow the same to avoid future problems! Regarding database, mongodb is best, so we will fix that 🙌🏻!

@satavshreya @akshay1027 @khushishikhu
I don't know if the work is still going on but do we need a backend.
One can create contact forms without backend as mentioned here.
