– Set up a NextJS project integrated with Firebase or Vercel for authentication, database management, and real-time updates.
– Design and develop a user interface in alignment with ShadCN principles, ensuring accessibility and responsiveness.
Integrate API endpoints for event selection, detailed event views, and profiles for horses and riders.
– Manage user sessions, including token expiration checks and re-login prompts.
– Deploy the application on Vercel, configure environment variables, and ensure seamless project deployment.
– Engage in extensive testing, including performance and security assessments, and refine the application based on user feedback.

Skills and Qualifications:
– Proven experience with NextJS, Firebase (Firestore and Authentication) or Vercel Postgres, and RESTful API integration.

– Strong understanding of data models, API communication strategies, and frontend and backend development.
