Money Plant




Some projects teach you the basics. Others push you to the edge of exellence. Money Plant was the latter.
Built as an MLM based referral system app, Money Plant wasn’t just about CRUD operations, it was my deep dive into complex backend architecture. I wanted to challenge myself, and nothing seemed more fitting than a node-tree structure that dynamically places users in a referral hierarchy.
I still remember spending two days obsessing over a single for loop in the signup API, ensuring precise tree placement. It was brutal, but when it finally worked? Pure satisfaction. I rewarded myself with a pizza that tasted like pure victory.
Beyond the tree structure, I implemented user analytics using MongoDB queries and managed payments via PayPal. Every query, every API call, every bug, it all added layers to my backend expertise.
Looking back, Money Plant wasn’t just a project, it was a turning point. It proved that I thrive on solving complex problems.
