Inspiration

Food costs have been increasing a lot, so I wanted to build something related to this issue. My partner gave me a buy-in-bulk application idea.

What it does

Users can create a group, they suggest buying items within a group, and once the items get approved in bulk. someone in a group buys the item to share. In this way, they can save money on their shopping.

How we built it

I created a frontend with React, and a backend server with Express, and used the MongoDB database. Utilized Auth0 for the authentication.

Challenges we ran into

I ran into an unexpected bug on the list item in the React application. It took time to find out the reason, but eventually I figured. It was because I used the index of the map function as a key. React application mixed up the memories.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I'm proud that I learned how to use Auth0 in a short amount of time, and also created a full-stack website with a unique idea. Even its bare minimum functionality so far.

What we learned

• How to use Auth0 ## What's next for PitchIn

• Implement users' locations to group with people nearby
• chat function to communicate with other group members
