🔥 Roast Stack

A no-holds-barred Gen-Z AI that absolutely obliterates your tech stack with surgical precision and zero chill.

🤔 What is this?

Ever lay awake at night wondering if your tech stack is a walking red flag? Wonder no more. Roast Stack is an AI-powered roast generator that serves up hilariously savage burns for your choice of frameworks, databases, and questionable architectural decisions.

From your 2008 LAMP stack to that 37-microservice monstrosity you call "scalable," Roast Stack sees all, judges all — and does not hold back.

🚀 Features

• 🔥 Multiple Roast Modes
  Choose your spice level: Mild Shade, Medium Petty, or Nuclear Devastation

• ⚡ Lightning Fast
  Delivers roasts faster than your CI/CD breaks in production

• 📱 Fully Responsive
  Works on all screen sizes — unlike your 2000-line homepage CSS

• 🧠 AI-Powered Sass
  Roasts generated using Gemini API, trained in the ancient art of tech sarcasm

• 💾 Persistent Burn Storage
  Saves your roasts in localStorage, so you can reflect on your poor choices later

🧠 Built With

• Frontend: React.js
  
• Backend: Express.js
