Programming

Hey everyone first time fullstack noob here, novice python, JS and CSS/HTML dev in the middle of development for a Fullstack Django React Native app, the thing is I made a mess out of my modules and nodes trying to compile with 95 no module found error on the expo CLI, I started with npm and the tried yarn since it was recommended and I ended up with a sorry mess. So since the Django backend API is already running on the messy project I’m going for the new project copy paste old code approach, the front end also has components and screens that may need a few touches but the bulk is already there. I not sure about the proper order and want to make extra sure I have the appropriate folder/project creation order so the compiling and installation is as streamlined as possible as well as the creation of the venv; on the last project I had two that had hardcoded the paths for the django folder and the frontend one since I had some issues with my project finding the appropriate folder, so that’s the right approach? at which time during the creation of the projects should the venv creation happen or more precisely which project should be created first with its corresponding venv, Django or React Native Expo, since as far as I understand there’s an ideal order that will create and setup some specs automatically. As far as I understand the correct order would be Expo-ReactNative-Django, but chatgpt suggest the other way around so I'd like some input from peeps in the know. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks
