Giftlax

Warning Giftlax is a personal project I built to learn cool technologies like React, how to work with databases, and how to deploy full-stack projects. However, please keep in mind that Giftlax is more of an experiment than a fully polished product, so there might be bugs, vulnerabilities, or limitations that could affect its performance or compromise user data (but your Google account is safe).
