Personal collections app

Collection app that lets create, update and delete collections of different items. There're 3 types of users. Anauthenticated users can only view collections. Authenticated users can control their collection while admin users can authorize other users, such as enabling/disabling other admins and blocking/unblocking users. The app also responds to different viewport sizes.

Each collection has a name, author, description and items. Each items has a name, type and tags. Optional fields and values can be added to each item.
