Full Stack
Full-Stack House Organizer Application
Housemates is a full-stack web application designed to help people organise, manage and access everything in a shared house.
Overview
About the project
Housemates is a full-stack web application designed to help people organise, manage and access everything in a shared house. People living in shared houses often struggle to manage shared information. This is usually scattered across messaging apps, making it hard to find, easy to forget and frustrating to manage. Housemates solves this by centralising all shared-house information in one secure place.
It provides a protected space where house members can manage bills and shared expenses, track tasks and responsibilities, create alerts with different priority levels, store shared credentials, and invite new members using an invite code.
The application also includes house-based authorisation, protected routes, and secure authentication to ensure that only authorised members can access and manage house data.
