## Building a Dockerized Todo App: React, Chakra UI, and Rust

This guide walks you through creating a containerized todo app using React for the frontend, Chakra UI for styling, and Rust for the backend. We'll leverage Docker and Docker Compose for deployment and scalability.

### Technology Stack

* **Frontend:** React + Chakra UI
    * React provides a powerful and efficient frontend framework.
    * Chakra UI offers accessible and customizable components for rapid UI development.
* **Backend:** Rust
    * Rust is known for its performance and safety features, making it a robust choice for backend development.
* **Deployment:** Docker and Docker Compose
    * Docker ensures consistent behavior and easy deployment.
    * Docker Compose simplifies the development process and allows for efficient resource utilization.
* **Database:** MongoDB
    * MongoDB offers a flexible, document-based data model, ideal for storing and retrieving todo items.

### Setting Up Your Environment

1. **Install Docker, Docker Compose, Rust, and Node:**
    * You can find instructions for installing these tools on their respective websites:
        * [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/)
        * [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en)
        * [Docker](https://www.docker.com/)
2. **Create Your React App:**
    ```bash
    create-react-app frontend
    cd frontend
    ```
3. **Install Chakra UI:**
    ```bash
    npm install @chakra-ui/react @emotion/react @emotion/styled framer-motion axios
    ```
4. **Build the Todo List UI:**
    Modify `src/App.js` to include the todo app functionality. A simple example is provided below:
    ```javascript
    // ... (import statements)
    
    function App() { 
        return ( 
            <ChakraProvider>
                <div className="App">
                    {/* Todo list UI code here */}
                </div>
            </ChakraProvider>
        );
    }
    
    export default App;
    ```

This is a high-level overview, and further steps will be needed to complete the development of your todo app. The complete guide will provide more detailed instructions and code examples.

In a containerized app, React and Chakra UI provide a robust and accessible user interface, while Rust delivers performance and safety on the backend.
