By the end of this, you will understand and create a simple yet complete full stack app using the following:

- Next.js 14 (TypeScript)
- Tailwind CSS
- Flask (Python) + SQLAlchemy (ORM)
- PostgreSQL
- Docker
- Docker Compose

MANY technologies, but we'll keep the example as basic as possible to make it understandable.

We will proceed with a bottom-up approach, starting with the database and ending with the frontend.
