Latest milestone (Day 33): Deployed the React frontend and went live at usachunian.com, connected end-to-end to the Railway backend and production Supabase database. CORS locked down to the live domain. Full-stack flow verified in production: register → login → enroll → AI-summarize a lesson, all working on real infrastructure, not localhost.
What's next: AI-generated MCQ quizzes from lesson content, and file upload for notes/PDFs.
