Thanks @AdityaKumar41 - this is also one of the larger TODO's for the project.

What @nicholasguyett and I discussed was being able to have the main functions split off into interconnected modules such as:

Having modules split out in this way provides a lot of flexibility in the various technologies used. For instance someone could write a frontend in another language but leverage our backend, and database. It also means that we should be able to build, and test various parts independently from one another.

That’s a solid plan! @BanjoFox Splitting things into modules will make development and testing way smoother. Excited to see how it helps speed things up!
