TDW Market

Project Description

This is a marketplace app which allows:

• Users to login through google provider
• Users to list items for sale, specify more details about the item
• Sellers to create live bidding sessions in a video call

Concepts to be used for Challenge Factor

• OAuth 2.0 - Users are able to sign in to our application using other oauth providers such as Google and authorization for multiple scopes such as access to their google calendar
• Real-time interaction - Sellers would be able to host live bidding sessions with a video chat where they can disconnect all the other users in the video call
• Workers - Utilize workers in backend to send emails three minutes after signing up, and for setting the event in their google calendar

Key features to be completed by the beta version

• Plan on getting OAuth 2.0 to authenticate users to login to our application
