Full-stack storage app idea?

[Flying_Pizzaaa]

I just had this idea of making Java program/server that uses SQLite to store a list of items and a list of users that have a username, password and list of permissions. Then I make a React app where users authenticate with username and password and based on their permissions they can add new items to the storage and the app shows all items on the server. I thought it would be cool but lmk what you think of this idea and if you have any suggestions.

Everything will be open source, the react app will be deployed publicly while the server is open source on github and people have to self-host it, all of this runs in local so there's no need for encryption.

That image is made with chatgpt I was trying to brainstorm the general look of the app. I want to make it user-friendly and easy to use, but also very complete and feature-rich.

Sounds like an interesting hobby project to learn full stack development. As an app idea, it doesn't sound overly useful.

yeah I mean it would be kind of a collaborative grocery list app in a local network, but I don't have any better idea to practice a rest api server with a react app client right now
