The problem Book a Beam solves

Ever voraciously searched for a book in the library a night before the exam only to realize later that a senior/friend had the same one resting on their bookshelf?
Or ever strained your eyes reading those cumbersome pdfs online for hours?
Our idea stemmed from the problem that the girl community of our college is devoid of the privilege of studying in the library at night.
Well, our website solves each of these problems by acting as a bridge between the lender and the borrower.

Challenges we ran into

1. We were totally new to the field of web development and thus we faced numerous challenges time and again.
2. We were not able to migrate the models to the database which was resolved later.
3. Since we are using sqlite database, it doesn’t support the storage of data in list format(array field) due to which we had to shift it to postgresql.
4. We had to create a custom user database in place of the default one which is provided by Django.
