This is a simple web application that allows users to request to borrow items, view requests made by others, and communicate through a basic chat system.
- A homepage that explains the purpose of the site.
- A page where users can view all existing item requests.
- A form page where users can create and submit a new borrowing request.
- A basic chat interface that allows users to send and receive messages.
The website is styled with CSS to provide a clean, modern interface, including a navigation bar, responsive input elements, and a visually distinct layout using background gradients and styled containers.
The chat feature uses Socket.io and requires a backend server to function properly. All other features work without a backend and can run in a browser locally.
This project is a starting point for a community-based item lending system.
- Node server.js to run frontend server
- cd chatapp/python app.py to run backend server (login)
- Click the Frontend server to have everything run as expected
