How I Used Amazon Q Developer

I first thought about what I wanted to build and then asked chatgpt to create a text document titled: "Tasks.txt" (available in the github repository)
Then I instructed Amazon Q developer to use the file tasks.txt as a starting point to get a feel for what it has to build.
Since the task sheet is split into different phases, I made Q developer stop everytime it completed a major task in each phase and tweaked the code manually or using q dev itself if needed.
After reviewing every phase's features that q developer implemented, I pushed it to my repository and moved on to the next phase.
