Inspiration

We were inspired by the services Aggie Reuse provide to the local community

What it does

The app allows users to add and keep track of items in the Aggie Reuse Store. Each item has a name, category, description, date/time added, and a unique id. The access page interface allows users to keep track of items in the store efficiently.

How we built it

We built the frontend of this app using Javascript, React and Material-UI. The backend is built using Node.js, Express, and a MongoDB database.

Challenges we ran into

Some challenges we ran into was setting up the backend and connecting it to the front end. We were also unfamiliar with using databases but we tried to make the system as efficient as possible.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We were proud of building a complete full stack application and using various web development frameworks in the project. This is also our first time working with a database which was a great learning experience.

What we learned

We learned to use several web development technologies like React, NodeJS, and Express. We also became familiar working with the backend and using MongoDB database.

What's next for Aggie Reuse Inventory

In the future, we planning on improving the UI interface of Aggie Reuse Inventory to make it more user friendly. We also plan on adding several features like editing, deleting, and additional sub categories to items to make it more efficient to manage.
