Structural map detailing how the frontend and backend are integrated and how various components interact with each other through user actions.
We developed an intuitive and responsive user interface that prioritizes ease of navigation. The layout is clean and organized, enabling users to register and interact with the application with minimal effort. By incorporating user feedback during the design process, we tailored the experience to meet the needs of various user demographics, enhancing overall satisfaction and encouraging prolonged engagement.
We utilized Prisma ORM to facilitate seamless interactions with the MongoDB database, allowing users to add, edit, and manage their property listings efficiently. The interface features straightforward forms and editing tools, giving users full control over their content while ensuring that all actions are user-friendly. This approach not only empowers users but also enhances the accuracy and relevance of the listings shared on the platform.
To improve search and discovery, we implemented advanced filtering and sorting options, enabling users to quickly find properties that align with their specific criteria. The design features a dynamic search bar and customizable filters, allowing for a tailored exploration of listings. By prioritizing speed and accessibility in this feature, we foster an engaging experience that encourages users to interact with a wider range of properties.
To facilitate community engagement, we incorporated features such as ratings, reviews, and real-time private messaging using Socket.io. This design choice promotes interaction among users, helping to build trust and a sense of community within the platform. By allowing users to share feedback and communicate directly, we enhance the overall user experience, making the application not just a transactional platform but a vibrant community space.
