Something something GCP something

Today, being Sunday, I wasn't working, and today I had the day to code. Looking at where I was up to, I decided to finally crack open the bundle of joy that was going to be setting everything up on a cloud product. I have chosen Google, as I'm at least a little familiar with it.

I say a little, as today was a textbook example of frustration, patience-sapping and generally statements along the lines of "Why? What do you mean? Well, that doesn't make sense!" and a lot of clicking, enabling APIs, more frustration and this sort of general cycle, but with more cuss words and the like.

However.

As I am finishing this up, I managed to load the app up here using a mix of online and local servers, which is a huge step forward. Now that I know that half of it is working and serving data (the static side) I can now look forward to working on the database side on the cloud product in the coming evenings.

Progress. Tiny, painful, frustrating, but delightfully glorious and fabulous progress.
