My Journey into Open Source: Simplifying Cookie Consent for React Developers

As a developer navigating the complexities of modern web development, I encountered a common challenge: implementing a cookie consent view in my React project. What initially appeared as a straightforward task soon revealed itself to be far more complex due to the overly complicated APIs of existing libraries.

Frustrated by the convoluted configurations and cumbersome design tweaks required by available solutions, I set out on a mission to create a simpler, more intuitive alternative. Little did I know that this quest would lead me to my first venture into the world of open source.
