Inspiration

There are many potential inspirations for creating this platform: -Making it easier for college students to find and purchase the items they need for their classes or dorms -Building a platform that allows students to buy and sell used textbooks and other items to each other -Creating a website that streamlines the process of ordering and receiving course materials for professors and students -Making a website that provides a social shopping experience where college students can share, rate, and recommend products to each other.

What it does

This website serves as a platform for college students to find and purchase items they need for their classes, dorms, or campus life
This platform also let user sell things that are not used by them
It also let seller and buyer chat each other using a Whatsapp link that redirect buyer directly to the sellers' Whatsapp chat
It also has a Stripe integrated payment system to directly transfer the money

How we built it

We build this website using MERN Stack (MongoDB, Express JS, React JS, Node JS) , here we take data from the students who wants to sell their resources and we save that information in a database and from there we extract the data to show it again to all the users on this platform.

Challenges we ran into

This was our first full stack application, so there were plenty of challenges

we encountered proxy errors in connecting frontend and the backend.
we encountered several errors in storing image sent by the seller in mongoDB using multer package.
connecting stripe with our application for payment interface
creating a dynamic modal for each item on the platform

Accomplishments that we're proud of

At first it looked like an impossible task for us to get all things done what we thought of doing but at the end we completed this project, the way we wanted.

What we learned

Time management would be a first thing
How to work in a team with better coordination
We learned so many new things during the course of hackathon about the technologies we used
