Yesterday I worked mostly on the end-user interface.

I created two React views, one for list of user's posts and another one for editing the post. I changed the database models as I found user <--> tags relationship is many-to-many, not one-to-many as I thought before. SQLAlchemy ORM allows to create such relationship pretty quickly, with just additional table what is a usual approach. Unusual is how it's done with SQLAlchemy (the table looks a little bit artificial, but it makes everything even easier).

Another problem was to update the post having a list of tags. I had to get the database entities for each tag and then update the post's entity. But it's okay and speed of working with database is pretty good.

It's how the editing post looks now:

Time spent: 3 hours
Total time spent so far: 35 hours
